    Elements of Mathematics II is a continuation of MAT126 Elements of Mathematics I which increases mathematical knowledge and expands understanding of the mathematics content of early childhood and middle school as a framework for learning to teach mathematics. In the course, students use a variety of materials for learning, work with conceptual models, use conceptual models to do mathematics, perform activities that develop new perspectives, and demonstrate competence in mathematics. This course enables our students to become insightful professionals who are able to understand and communicate mathematic principles to others. Prerequisite:    Placement Test Results or Waiver
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course is designed to prepare students for higher level mathematics through a mastery of algebraic concepts. Topics include factoring, laws of exponents, polynomials, equations and linear inequalities, graphing (using linear equations and inequalities), functions, rational expressions and radicals. Prerequisite:    MAT 080, MAT 085, or Placement Test Results
