Section 8.1, Due March 29, 2012

Difficult:

This whole section was a little difficult for me. I read through it seeming to somewhat understand what they were talking about but I really didn't. I do not really know what they mean by the product of two groups. I do not know what it means to multiply two groups together. The proof of theorem 8.1 was also difficult to follow.

Reflective:

I liked the example starting at the end of page 245. It helped to be able to look at the tables and visually see why the two groups were isomorphic to each other. I am not anticipating how this new section will complicate our homework. I think at this point I am ready to only focus on what we have learned to prepare for the final. Though I am glad that we did not have to learn about a brand new entity. I like working in groups. If we stay in groups then that will be a good thing.
