One way you can earn extra credit is by finding a Precalculus student who needs your help! Follow this link to see how: Student Tutors
Another way you can earn extra points is for learning something new and (I hope!) fun involving math. This page will show essay and research topics for your level of math. Most of the links you see here will be articles I found interesting, and I hope you do too. Sometimes I will post guided activities, or research topics. Research on the spread of zombiism, anyone?
The research topics and essays are often open-ended. Before you start, I'd suggest talking with me about what you plan to write. The paper you have in mind may be too small a scale to be worth much extra credit -- or too big a challenge for your current level in math.
A few ideas about what you can write:
How an article or topic relates to the math you're studying
How you could take the article or topic further
A synopsis in your own words about the article or topic
