COURSE DESCRIPTION: Students enrolled in this course will receive an elective credit, not a mathematics credit. This course is designed to support students by reinforcing and enriching their conceptual and procedural knowledge of algebra and problem solving through the use of a computer-based software curriculum along with instructor led reinforcement of algebraic concepts. This innovative approach gives students the opportunity to receive individualized attention thus maximizing algebra learning.
PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT
Due to the nature of this class homework will not usually be assigned, however class participation is required. Classwork and short quizzes will be used to reinforce algebraic concepts and evaluate progress. This class will be graded on a points system. Their grades will be calculated as follows: 20% semester final and 80% remaining points from classwork, quizzes, and tests.
*If you are absent, it is YOUR responsibility to get your make up work the day you return.
*NO EXTRA CREDIT IS GIVEN*
CLASS ATTENDANCE
Attendance in class is expected. Remember once a student reaches 10 absences in a semester, they will automatically receive a NO CREDIT. (2 Tardies = 1 absence)
