3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: MA 098 or higher. Fundamental concepts of inferential and descriptive statistics with emphasis on interpretation of statistical arguments. An introduction to data analysis including graph analysis, measures of central tendency, correlation, regression, concepts of probability theory, sampling errors, confidence intervals in normal distribution, hypothesis testing, and analysis of variance. Lecture: 3 hours per week. 3 credits
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: MA 098 or higher. This course is designed to engage students in solving and analyzing real world problems that are quantitative in nature. Students will develop the ability to use concepts and processes from arithmetic, algebra, geometry, logic, probability and statistics to become better informed citizens, sound financial planners, productive workers, and life-long learners. Technology is used to explore mathematical models of real-world phenomena. Lecture: 3 hours per week. 3 credits
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: MA 098 or higher. This course provides a comprehensive, conceptually based study of the mathematics of the natural number and whole number systems. Topics studied include pattern recognition and problem solving, decimal and non-decimal numerical systems, algorithms for arithmetic operations, the properties of geometric shapes, systems of measurement, and introductory probability and statistics. Active learning, problem- solving strategies, especially Polya's, and project work are emphasized. This course is required for Liberal Arts: Early Childhood Education program, Liberal Arts: Elementary Education program, and Early Childhood Education (AS). Lecture: 3 hours per week. 3 credits.
