Can't afford Chalkdust, so today I spent most of the afternoon looking for used Larson Precalculus texts and DVDs. Finally got it all for $44. Thought I'd share the info.

Excellent price! So are these dvds just the book on dvd? And I wonder if it's possible to find Chalkdust dvds used? I can't afford Chalkdust, either, but I've decided I'm going to use it anyway. It's the only thing that seems to fit what I need.

I don't know yet.
On half.com the isbn# was labeled as: Houghton Mifflin Mathematics Instructional Dvd Series. So I decided to take a chance.
I'll let you know when I get them.

The Houghton Mifflin Precalculus, Elementary Algebra , Intermediate dvds I bought from ebay, half.com and amazon inexpensively are also produced by Chalkdust company and Dana Mosely is the instructor.in all of them. The sample lecture of Algebra 1 ( section 2.4 )in the chalkdust website is the exact lecture of what I have in my elementary algebra dvd, also named lecture 2.4 . Mine are also labled Houghton Mifflin Mathematics Instructional Dvd Series

Thanks for the information. That's good to know. I figured if they weren't what I was looking for, I could return them.

Hi- I also purchased those used last spring. (PreCal and Calculus) I was always wondering if it was similar to Chalk Dust or if the lectures were different. (He does a wonderful job! ) But I started watching the PreCal and I was wondering if it would be too hard for a high school student? I was thinking maybe the CD was more watered down. My husband watched part of the Cal and said it was fabulous, but we don't know at what age a HS student would be able to tackle it. I would love some feedback, my daughter aims to do PreCal this next year (9th) to prep for Calculus as a 10th grader. ( I hope this isn't too early) I was looking at some Finite Math books because they look like they give extra math background but before Calculus. My older one was older when she did Calculus (a senior) and it was a struggle. She did fine her first year of college, when she repeated it. I'm thinking that you would forget your Calculus if you did it too early! Thanks for any info you can add to the puzzle.
