-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
This course focuses on a variety of areas in physical education, wellness, exercise, and fitness. Course content varies each semester so the course may be repeated for credit with differing section numbers. This course is offered based on need, interest, and demand.
-
4.00 Credits
This course fulfills the general education science requirement for students seeking an associate degree. The contents of the course include measurement, gravitational motion, Newton's Laws, rational mechanics, momentum energy, power, temperature, heat, sound, optical wave, electrostatics, and electricity. Lab included.
-
5.00 Credits
This course is the first in a two-semester introduction to algebra-based physics. The broad topics covered in the course include mechanics, vibrations, and wave motion. More specifically, the topics covered involve one- and two-dimensional motion, vectors, work and energy, momentum and collisions, circular motion, rotational equilibrium and dynamics, solids and fluids, vibration and waves, and sound. Mathematical techniques used in the course include algebra, geometry, and trigonometry, but not calculus. Class meetings will be devoted to lecture, discussion, problem-solving, and discovery labs. There will be three hours of discovery lab each week and a $25 lab fee is required. Prerequisite: MTH-120 or permission of the instructor. This course is only offered in the fall semester.
-
5.00 Credits
This course is a continuation of the study of physics begun in PHY-111. The course of study continues with conceptual foundations in electricity and magnetism, optics, and modern physics. In addition, students will learn problem-solving techniques in these areas. Physics 112 is the appropriate second course for students who plan no further study in physics. The course includes three hours of discovery lab per week and a $25 lab fee is required. Prerequisite: PHY-111. This course is only offered in the spring semester.
-
5.00 Credits
The first semester of this calculus-based two-semester introductory sequence in physics uses the workshop physics method. This approach combines inquiry-based cooperative learning with comprehensive use of computer tools. Topics covered include kinematics, Newton's laws of motion, rotational motion, and oscillations. The course includes three hours of discovery lab each week and a $25 lab fee is required. Prerequisite: MTH-121, MTH-123, or MTH-150. This course is offered in the fall semester only.
-
5.00 Credits
This course continues the study of physics begun in PHY-121. The approach to this course combines inquiry-based cooperative learning with the comprehensive use of computer tools. The course covers topics such as electricity, electronics, magnetism, and thermodynamics. Physics 122 is required for students who wish to further their studies in physics. The weekly three hour discovery lab requires a $25 lab fee. Prerequisite: PHY-121 and MTH-162. This course is offered in the spring semester only.
-
1.00 Credits
This course is addresses life skills of learning to enhance the students' emotional, cognitive and social skills. The course encompasses a five-step learning model-teaching, modeling, roleplay, feedback, and application of the skills outside of the classroom. The learning model is a systematic approach to remediation and enhancement of interpersonal and intrapersonal positive outcomes. Students acquire social skills through learning by observation, modeling, and providing feedback and positive response from their social environment. In addition to social skills, students will learn the process of how alcohol and other drugs affect the brain's function.
-
3.00 Credits
This course will be a broad look at the science of psychology today and will serve as a window into the concepts of psychology. The course will cover topics such as the nervous system, sensation and perception, sleep and dreams, types of memory, thought, and language. It will also examine how human beings develop cognitively, emotionally, and socially.
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
This course examines a variety of topics related to contemporary psychology issues and practices. Course content varies each semester so course may be repeated for credit with differing section numbers. The course is offered according to interest, need, and demand.
-
3.00 Credits
This course is an introduction to the psychology of human development throughout the lifespan. Participants study theories in maturational and behavioral development throughout life stages as well as the general principles and concepts of human growth. The course meets the needs of the students who are enrolled in programs where an understanding of human development is important, such as early childhood education, preschool and elementary education, human services, counseling, and nursing. Prerequisite: PSY 105 or permission of instructor.
