-
2.00 Credits
In this course students will learn anatomical terminology, planes and positioning, skeletal anatomy and function, joints and their functions, and Massage therapy palpation skills. Focus is given to learning and palpating muscles while identifying muscle attachments, action as prime, synergist, and antagonist movers. Students will analyze individual body motions during movement and gauge muscle energy.
-
4.00 Credits
This course provides exposure and experience in applying Massage Therapy principles, protocols and techniques in a professional MT setting.
-
2.00 Credits
This course is a study of pathological changes occurring in the human body's cells, tissues, and organs that cause or are caused by disease mechanisms. Massage Therapy (MT) students receive a foundation in the disease processes, identification of signs and symptoms of diseases, as well as medical terminology commonly seen in the field. The course also covers massage therapy considerations; indications and contraindications for treatment and proper protocol for client education and diagnosis referrals.
-
3.00 Credits
This course focuses on methods, processes, and strategies used to solve mathematical problems in a wide variety of contexts. It demonstrates the uses and structure of mathematics while developing diverse ways to approach both mathematical and non-mathematical problems. There is an emphasis placed on George Polya's four step procedure for problem-solving. Specific topics to be covered are number sequences and patterns, geometry and unit measurements, consumer math, counting principles, and probability. Other optional areas that may be covered could include algebraic modeling, numeration systems, set theory, or descriptive statistics.
-
1.00 Credits
This course is designed to prepare students to efficiently utilize graphing calculators in mathematics courses. Use of the graphical and computational power of a graphing calculator is emphasized.
-
3.00 Credits
This course introduces finite mathematics to majors not requiring Calculus. Topics include set theory, logic, linear equations, matrix algebra, Gaussian elimination, counting techniques, probability, and statistics. (3 lect hrs/week)
-
4.00 Credits
This course prepares prospective elementary school teachers to be competent in teaching the major concepts and practical skills related to the real number system with the four arithmetic operations. Special emphasis is placed on teaching in the context of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) Standards. Activities involving math manipulatives will be performed in order to reinforce content. Students will also observe math lessons being taught in elementary school classrooms. This course does not satisfy the mathematics requirement at NWCCD or UW.
-
3.00 Credits
This course is a continuation of MATH 1100 Mathematics for Elementary School Teacher I: Number & Operations and is for prospective elementary school teachers. Its primary focus is on the process of solving various problems through the use of algebra, the Fundamental Counting Principle, probability, and data analysis, and to prepare students to be competent in teaching these major concepts. Emphasis continues to be placed on the development of problem solving skills and teaching in the context of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) Standards.
-
4.00 Credits
This course covers the fundamental operations of algebra, graphs, equations, inequalities, systems of equations, matrices, exponents, logarithms, and an introduction to the theory of equations.
-
3.00 Credits
This course provides an introduction to the basic trigonometric functions and applications of these functions in the solution of equations, right triangles, oblique triangles, vectors, complex numbers, conics, and graphs. Proofs of trigonometric identities are stressed. (3 lect hrs/week)
