-
3.00 Credits
(Cannot be applied towards graduation requirements.) Topics include linear equations and inequalities, systems of linear equations, slope and equations of a line, linear functions, operations on polynomials and rational expressions, rational equations, radical expressions and equations, comlex number, quadraic equations and functions, and logarithms.
-
3.00 Credits
(For students who have completed geometry and at least three semesters of algebra in high school.) Basic algebra review; linear and quadraic equations, sequences and series, complex numbers, theory of equations, matrices, non-linear equations, conic sections. This course is not preparatory for calculus.
-
3.00 Credits
The trigonometric functions; solutions of triangles; identities and equations; complex numbers and DeMoivre's theorem; conic sections; polar coordinates; solid analytic geometry.
-
3.00 Credits
This course provides a foundation for students to become confident and critical users of quantitative information of all kinds: numerical, graphical, and verbal. Students analyze data and ideas from a wide variety of fields, such as psychology, economics, finance, sociology and political science. The course is taught in a hands-on laboratory environment where students are introduced to computer tools for data analysis and presentation. Active learning and reasoning are emphasized and technology is an integral part of the course. Students write critiques of quantitative arguments, gather data and present arguments based on their analyses.
-
3.00 Credits
Process of classifying and drawing conclusions form data obtained from observations, experiment, or sampling. Decision making under uncertainty with emphasis on the behavioral fields. Study of frequency distributions and their use in the decision making process. Usage of computer and prepared software make plus a graphic calculator (TI-83 or equivalent) is required.

3.00 Credits
The purpose of this course is to introduce the students to several of the mathematical tools that are used in all areas of mathematics including subjects that are strongly mathematics driven; these tool facilitate (1) problem-solving in mathematics and (2) mathematical communication and connection with other branches and other discipline. Graphing calculator will be required and used to facilitate better understanding of some mathematical models, algorithms and applications. Other topics include expressions, mathematical functions, equations, inequalities and complex numbers.

3.00 Credits
The purpose of this course is to introduce the new teachers to the structure of Mathematics which include: mathematical reasoning; mathematical communication and connection with other branches and other discipline; and problem-solving. Topics: number theory, combinatorics, geometry, probability and statistics, mathematics of finance.
-
4.00 Credits
This course focuses on algebra concepts and is designed to meet the needs of elementary and middle school teachers. Some of the conceopts covered will be linear, quadratic, exponential and logarithmic functions, systems of equations and introduction to trigonomic functions. Problem solving, development of algebraic thinking and modeling simple and complex linear systems with and without technology will be emphasized. Written assignments and reflections on the learning process will be introduced as appropriate. Algebra concepts will be taught in the context of real world problems and applications. This course has been designed keeping in mind both the Illinois Content Standards for Educators in Mathematics and the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics Stadards and the content and pedagogy necessary to prepare teachers to be elementary and middle school teachers of math and science. Course is linked and integrated with the M&S Concepts Minor introductory course in biology.
