COURSE CONTENT

Student Learning Outcomes:
At the conclusion of this course, the student should be able to:

1. Evaluate and/or interpret mathematical information, relationships, and/or concepts related to pre-algebra.

2. Apply the mathematical skills required in performing operations and/or problem-solving related to pre-algebra.

3. Communicate mathematical information symbolically, visually and/or numerically using appropriate terminology related to pre-algebra.

 

Objectives:

At the conclusion of this course, the student should be able to:

1. Demonstrate self-directed learning skills such as time management and personal responsibility through the completion of course requirements.

2. Demonstrate an understanding of fractions, decimals, and percentages by representing quantities in equivalent forms, comparing and interpreting numbers in different forms.

3. Strengthen basic computational skills with real numbers, estimation skills, and number sense.

4. Use dimensional analysis to convert units of measurements.

5. Use tables, graphs, charts, and equations to describe and interpret information.

6. Use formulas to solve problems with common geometric shapes (perimeter, circumference, area, and volume)
