MATH 091 Mathematical Literacy

Prerequisite: MATH 085 with a C or better, or qualifying score on the Math Placement Test
5 lectures: 5 hrs non-degree, non-transfer credit
Mathematical Literacy is a one semester course for those whose major does not require a math class higher than General Education Math (MATH 112) or General Education Statistics (MATH 115). The course will integrate numeracy, proportional reasoning, algebraic reasoning, and an understanding of functions. Students will develop conceptual and procedural tools that support the use of key mathematical concepts in a variety of contexts. Throughout the course, college readiness content will be integrated with mathematical topics. Students in majors needing other college-level math courses such as MATH 151 need to take MATH 095 and any of its required prerequisites instead of this course.
