3.00 Credits
A course designed specifically for prospective teachers in K -12 schools. The goal is to help students better comprehend and apply mathematical concepts and principles in the content strands of geometry, number systems, data analysis and statistics, and problem solving. Students will be introduced to a variety of materials, activities with physical manipulatives and computer models, and various types of software as tools for teaching and learning. The course focus will include emphasis from the national standards and Pennsylvania standards for mathematics as well as state standards for other certification areas that include application of mathematics in another subject area. This course is restricted to GCOL students or major/minor in Art Education, Business Education Information Technology, Early Childhood, Elementary, Secondary, Education K-12. Offered Spring semester. Three credits.
-
1.00 Credits
This is a one-semester course whose main ideas are emphasized in the presentation of the polynomial, rational, trigonometric, exponential, and logarithmic functions. The core of the course is derived from materials best described as a compendium of college algebra, trigonometry, and analytic geometry, which would reinforce those skills essential to Calculus. Prerequisite: MA 100 or equivalent high school background. Three credits.
-
4.00 Credits
The elementary functions, limits, the derivative and its applications, the definite integral, techniques of integration. Applications are presented from the areas of biology and the social sciences. Graphing calculators and the computer algebra system of Mathematica are used to help study various concepts of calculus. Four credits.
-
3.00 Credits
Probability, vectors, partial differentiation, multiple integration, sequences and series. Graphing calculators and the computer algebra system of Mathematica are used to help study various concepts of calculus. Prerequisite: MA 109. Four credits.
-
4.00 Credits
The real number system. Limits and continuity. The concepts of differentiation and integration. Differentiation of algebraic and trigonometric functions and applications. Newton’s method. The Mean Value Theorem. The definite integral and the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus. Applications of the definite integral. Graphing calculators and the computer algebra system of Mathematica are used to help study various concepts of calculus. Four credits.
-
3.00 Credits
The trigonometric, logarithmic and exponential functions. Polar coordinates and parametric equations. The calculus of vectors. Techniques of integration and further applications of the integral. Approximate integration. Prerequisite: MA 111. Four credits.
-
3.00 Credits
