I found a vodcast series by Susan Cooper-Nguyen from Harrisburg Area Community College. It is a series of videos from her beginning Algebra class. The topics include basic operations, polynomials, rational expressions, and linear equations. These topics are the same topics that are covered in a basic Algebra class in high school. I could use these vodcasts in my Algebra B class to reiterate lessons. Students would also have access to these videos to get caught up if they were absent.

There are many lessons from the vodcast that I subscribed to. The one here is on solving systems of linear equations by graphing. This seems to be a topic in particular that students struggle with. The video reminds students how to change equations into slope-intercept form before reminding them how to graph the lines. These are very helpful reminders.
