4.00 Credits
2 units 4 hours weekly Advisory: Eligibility for MATH 050A and READ 099. This course is designed for students who need preparation for college level courses and programs. In addition, it can benefit students with math anxiety, students who wish to learn at a slower pace, as well as students with identified learning disabilities for math. It covers addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division with whole and rational (fraction) numbers. Within these set of numbers, there are topics related to real life applications such as rounding, estimation, order of operations, finding perimeter, area, and volume of different closed geometric figures. MATH 050A will include the use of math software and videotape as well as collaborative learning in a small assembly setting. This course together with MATH 050B is equivalent to MATH 050. Credit is allowed in either MATH 050 or the MATH 050A-MATH 050B combination. Concurrent enrollment in MATH 050 and MATH 050A or MATH 050B is not permitted. NOTE: No grade will be given for this class; student will receive "pass" or "no pass" only. (Credit cournot applicable to the associate degree and certificate programs.)
