MTH - Math

This course provides the basic preparation for more specialized courses in mathematics as determined by the student's major. Topics include graphical, symbolic, and numeric solutions of problems, number systems, integer and rational exponents, radicals, functions, first and second degree equations and inequalities, system of equations and inequalities, measurement, and geometry. Although emphasis is placed on the development of algebraic skills, problem solving is a main component of the course. Pre-requisite(s): None. Co-requisite(s): None. 5 quarter hours

This course provides a foundation for mathematics that applies to the teacher candidate through a professional sequence. The content of this course prepares teacher candidates to acquire a deeper understanding of the mathematics content embedded in the Common Core standards including the 8 standards of practices. Pre-requisite(s): None. Co-requisite(s): None. 5 quarter hours

This course focuses on mathematical reasoning and problem solving. It examines the underlying conceptual framework of the elementary mathematics topics of algebra and informal geometry, metric measurement, rational and real number operations, percent probability, and statistics. Estimation, models, graphs, and manipulatives are used in a variety of problem-solving situations. A weekly lab component is required.The class time is split between the classroom and online work, some in an adaptive learning environment. Pre-requisite(s): LAM 112 or MTH 105 or equivalent. Co-requisite(s): None. 5 quarter hours
