The focus of this course is to enrich students' basic math skills the following areas: reinforcement of the knowledge of operations and applications of fractions, and decimals; arithmetic concepts of whole numbers, integers, fractions, and decimals; simple linear equations and inequalities, graphing linear equations, and exponents; problem solving skills dealing with ratios, rates, proportions, and percentages; basic concepts of linear, area, volume measurement. A successful completion of this course is sufficient to will meet the prerequisites/corequisite for MATH 110E. The grading of this course is on an Pass/Fail basis. The course is worth three institutional (3) credits; however, it may not be used to satisfy the requirements towards a degree, and nor does it count toward the 120+ credits hour minimum required for graduation.
Corequisite Support
Must enroll concurrently with MATH 110E. The purpose of corequisite support courses is to give enrichment support and extra help math students to be successful in the college level math course. In the corequisite support course, the instructor may review prerequisite math skills, provide additional instruction, lead guided homework practice, conduct virtual one-on-one or small group tutoring, discuss general learning and study skills, and any additional topics that could aid and improve student success.
NOTE:
- MATH 0110E and MATH 110E sections are only offered in 8-Week Terms.
- As MATH 0110E is linked with MATH 110E, when a student registers for one class in the corequisite pair, the other class in the pair will automatically be added to their class schedule.
- Once enrolled in a pair of corequisite courses, students are expected to complete BOTH courses within the SAME TERM in corequisite courses withdraws or drops from one course in the corequisite pair, then he/she will be dropped from the other linked course.
- The courses run concurrently for the entire 8-week Term, and in many instances both classes are taught by the same instructor.
- Where a passing grade is assigned to MATH 0110E, as a P grade when MATH 110E C or higher.
After successfully completing the course, the learner will be able to:
- The learners will demonstrate factual knowledge including the mathematical notation and terminology used in this course.
- Learners will read, interpret, and use the vocabulary, symbolism, and basic definitions used in elementary algebra covering topics such as exponents, radicals, equations, inequalities, and polynomials.
- The Learners will describe the fundamental mathematical principles, generalizations, and properties arising from the concepts covered in this course.
- Learners will identify and apply the basic operations on the real numbers and the techniques used in solving a variety of types of equations and systems of equations.
- The learners will apply course material along with techniques and procedures covered in this course to solve problems.
- Learners will use the facts, formulas, and techniques learned in this course to solve application problems in a variety of topics to include business, number relations, geometric situations, and proportions.
- The learners will develop the basic skills and knowledge necessary to be successful in college-level mathematics courses.
- Learners will acquire a level of proficiency in the fundamental concepts of equation solving, algebraic manipulation, ng, and applications to promote success in college-level math courses.
- Identify their own areas of weakness/confusion and learn how to take responsibility for seeking out help.
- Make sense of problems, develop strategies for solving them, and persevere in solving them and interpreting the meaning of their solutions.
- Describe their thinking using appropriate mathematical language and critique the reasoning of others.
- Develop and demonstrate good mathematical study habits.
