Courses
MATH124W: College Algebra
MATH180W: Pre-Calculus
MATH214W: Statistics
MATH215W: Calculus I
Calculus I concentrates on limits, differentiation, and integration. It includes exponential, trigonometric, and logarithmic functions. Students apply their learning to sketching curves, finding areas and volumes, and solving problems in the physical sciences and other fields. If time permits, the course introduces differential equations.
MATH220W: Math in Our World I
MATH222W: Math in Our World II
Math in Our World II uses MATH220W as its basis for further investigation into mathematical discourse. Students engage in various activities and discussions with an emphasis on communication, problem solving, cooperative learning, and activity-based learning. The course covers mathematical content for levels K-8, with a focus on grades 4, 5, and 6. Topics include algebra, statistics, probability, and two- and three-dimensional geometry. Students solve problems using creative approaches and learn how to apply these approaches as future teachers.
