    The Foundations of College Learning provides an educational foundation for a student's major transition from high school to college and for adults returning to school. Through both the course curriculum and professional staff, students have an opportunity to gain a better understanding of their educational and career goals and the academic skills they need to fulfill these goals. Students will also learn about ways to cope with and balance the academic, social and personal aspects of their lives. The course will provide an introduction to the Fulton-Montgomery campus community and the resources students have available to them at the College. Hours of class per semester: 15.
  • 1.00 Credits

    This course is designed to provide the student with the basic information literacy skills needed to successfully research a college-level term paper. Included are locating book and periodical information in both paper and electronic formats and research using the World Wide Web. The methods used are lecture, assignment, and hands-on use of materials and equipment. This course will also be offered in a web based, distance learning format. Hours of class per semester: 15 for five weeks.

    This is the second part of Elementary French, and it is assumed that the student has either one semester or little more than one year of high school French. This course focuses on getting students to communicate from day one. Students are expected to prepare grammatical material on their own in the text and bring questions and be ready to work with the material in class. Class time is then reserved largely for the use and practice of new material, as well as trouble shooting. Students are required to complete a mid-term and final exam, at least 5 journal (writing) assignments, and two class participation evaluations. This course is not open to Native or Heritage speakers of French. Hours of class per week: 3. General Education: F.

    This is the first part of Elementary Spanish, and it is assumed that the student has little no Spanish. This course focuses on getting students to communicate from day one. Students are expected to prepare grammatical material on their own in the workbook and bring questions and be ready to work with the material in class. Class time is then reserved largely for the use and practice of new material, as well as trouble shooting. Students will be evaluated by a mid-term, final and oral exams, at least 5 journal (writing) assignments, two class participation evaluations. Quizzes may also be administered periodically during the semester. This course is not open to Native or Heritage speakers of Spanish. Hours of class per week: 3. General Education: F.
