Prerequisites: MATH 1314 .
M
This course is intended to build or reinforce a foundation in fundamental mathematics concepts and skills. It includes the concepts of geometry, measurement, probability, and statistics with an emphasis on problem solving and critical thinking.
Additional Fees: $15 Lab Fee
Measurable Learning Outcomes:
Upon successful completion of this course, students will: Apply fundamental terms of geometry such as points, lines, and planes to describe two and three dimensional figures. Make and test conjectures about figures and geometric relationships. Use a variety of methods to identify and justify congruency and similarity of geometric objects. Perform geometric transformations. Demonstrate fundamental probability techniques and apply those techniques to solve problems. Explain the use of the data collection and statistics as tools to reach reasonable conclusions. Recognize, examine, and utilize the basic principles of describing and presenting data. Perform measurement processes and explain the concept of a unit of measurement. Develop and use formulas for the perimeter, area, and volume for a variety of figures.
Notes:
Any student enrolled in a mathematics course at Temple College will be eligible to attend a mathematics lab. The main campus lab will be open at least 20 hours each week and will be staffed by the lab director, regular math faculty members and peer tutors. Labs in Hutto and Taylor will be open a limited number of hours as posted at those facilities. Hours vary each semester. Check with center directors for available tutoring at the Hutto and Taylor locations.
While every effort has been made to align our pre-requisites with the majority of major receiving institutions, it is ultimately the learner’s responsibility to be aware of his/her institution’s particular pre-requisites.
MyMathLab is used in most classes.
