Course Description<br />

MATH 1101 Elementary Topics in Mathematics I 1M 3 0 Elementary Topics in Mathematics I&II is a sequence for majors in elementary<br />

education and related fields. The course focuses on the development of<br />

arithmetic and number systems, including whole numbers, integers, and<br />

rational numbers. Probability and data analysis are studied as applications of<br />

rational numbers and emphasize mathematical representation and<br />

communication. Satisfies Tier I requirement for elementary education majors<br />

only. Does not apply to Arts and Sciences natural science requirements.<br />

MATH 1102 Elementary Topics in Mathematics II 1M 3 0 Elementary Topics in Mathematics I&II is a sequence for majors in elementary<br />

education and related fields. The course focuses on the development of<br />

geometry and algebra. Students use both dynamic geometry software and<br />

graphing calculators to develop representation, communication, and problem<br />

solving processes in both algebra and geometry. Does not apply to Arts and<br />

Sciences natural science requirements.<br />

MATH 1200 College Algebra 1M 4 0 Topics in algebra including functions, linear equations and systems,<br />

polynomials, rational and radical expressions, quadratic equations,<br />

exponential and logarithmic functions, and inequalities. This course is<br />

primarilry intended to prepare students for Business Calculus. Students<br />

needing Tier I Math credit only should consider Intro Game Theory instead.<br />

Those whose program requires MATH 2301 Calculus I should start with<br />

PreCalculus.<br />

MATH 1300 Pre-Calculus 1M 4 0 Graphs, inverses, and operations of functions. Study of polynomial, rational,<br />

exponential, logarithmic, and trigonometric functions. Additional topics from<br />

trigonometry and analytic geometry. Recommended only for students<br />

intending to enroll in MATH 2301.<br />

MATH 1321 Elementary Applied Mathematics I 1M 3 0 Topics from intermediate algebra such as functions and graphs, systems of<br />

linear equations, 3x3 determinants, factoring, quadratic equations and<br />

inequalities, exponents and radicals, and logarithms. Available by<br />

correspondence and on some regional campuses. Students cannot earn<br />

credit for both this course and 1200.<br />

MATH 1322 Elementary Applied Mathematics II 1M 3 0 Topics from trigonometry and analytic geometry including trigonometric<br />

functions and their graphs, vectors and oblique triangles, trigonometric<br />

identities, straight lines, conic sections, and translation of axes. Available by<br />

correspondence and on some regional campuses.<br />

MATH 2500 Introduction to Statistics 1M 4 0 An introductory course in applied statistics. Organization of data, central<br />

tendency and dispersion, probability, concept of random variables, probability<br />

distributions, estimation, testing hypotheses, linear regression and correlation,<br />

analysis of variance, and use of Excel in statistical analysis.<br />
