MATH 130 - Survey of Mathematical Skills for Educators



3
Prerequisite(s): MATH 099, or direct placement by way of the University-approved Mathematics Placement Test or by way of transfer credit. Proceeding from a general education perspective, we sample the elementary principles and methods of seven distinct areas of mathematics, including number theory, set theory, geometry, algebra, logic, probability and statistics. Problem solving techniques are accorded top priority. In particular, this course comprises a sound preparation for the mathematics component of the Core Academic Skills for Educators: Math teacher certification exam. All tests, homework and other evaluation instruments are designed to simulate the scope and type of questions which typically appear on the Core Academic Skills for Educators: Math Exam.
