Welcome, and thank you for visiting.  In this episode, number four, we discuss how to promote mathematical literacy in students by teaching them how to read the notation used with negative exponents.  The idea is that by having them learn to read and understand the notation, there will be much less to remember.  After all, what is there to remember when reading information beyond the ability to read the information!?
