MATH 0011 - Math in Our World Corequisite
Credits: 2
Catalog Description
This course provides instruction and support to help students succeed in MATH 1100 (Math in Our World). The focus of the course is reviewing fundamental arithmetic and algebraic processes, then appropriately applying those processes in a problem-solving environment. Emphasis is placed on the skills needed to achieve the learning outcomes for MATH 1100 . All students registered for MATH 0011 must be concurrently enrolled in a paired section of MATH 1100 .
Prerequisite(s) (must have a grade of C or better): Any of the following:
- Completion of MATH 0080
- MATH 0240 placement
- MATH 0250/MATH 1100/MATH 1114 placement
- MATH 1200/MATH 1201/MATH 1210 placement
- MATH 1400 placement
Corequisite(s): MATH 1100
Recommended Skills, Abilities, or Coursework:
- This course is designed for students who have good arithmetic skills and have had some high school algebra.
- Consider English, reading, and ESOL measures that indicate students are likely to succeed in college level mathematics with corequisites. Students who need corequisite support in both English and mathematics should complete their developmental/corequisite reading and writing course(s) before taking their gateway math course with corequisite support.
Additional fee to student: No
