FORM 335

Course Form 335 must be updated at least every five years per AP 765 to include, at a minimum, the following elements. [§335.2]

1. Digital Description [§335.2] (Insert the new/revised digital description below):

Credit hours: 2.0 Lecture hours: 2.0 Lab hours: 0.0

Approved Online/Blended Face-to-Face Instruction Ratios:

[__] 25/75% [__] 33/67% [X] 50/50% [__] 67/33% [__] 75/25% (Note: The first number indicates the percentage of online instruction. The second number indicates the percentage of in-class instruction.)

2. Maximum Enrollment (Insert new/revised maximum enrollments below):

In-Class Instruction: 20 Lab Instruction: (It is assumed that maximum enrollments for blended courses are the same as those identified for In-Class instruction. Maximum enrollments for Virtual Learning courses are to be 75% of In-Class instruction, as per the SGP on Maximum Class Size):

3. Catalog Description [§335.2] (Insert the new/revised description in space below): Develops and strengthens algebraic skills in the following areas: linear equations in two variables, relations, functions, and systems of linear equations. A course fee is required.

Minimum Grade Required 4. Prerequisites [§335.2]: MATH 022 or 020 C

Co-requisites:

Other: Placement through the College Testing and Placement Program.

5. Learning Outcomes [§335.2] [These outcomes are necessary to enable students to attain the essential knowledge and skills embodied in the program’s educational objectives.]

Upon successful completion of the course the student will be able to:  Graph solution sets for linear and non-linear functions  Determine whether or not a relation is a function, evaluate functions, use function notation, and identify domain and range of functions  Formulate the equation of a line given characteristics of the line 12/1/04 Form Template Reviewed & Updated: 10/26/07; 1/11/08; 1/16/09; 7/14/09; 7/31/12; 7/30/13; 8/26/13; 1/31/14; 8/18/14 Department: Mathematics and Computer Science Discipline: Developmental Mathematics Subject Code: MATH Course #: 033 Course Title: Pre-College Mathematics III  Solve systems of linear equations in two and three variables  Translate applications into mathematical equations, formulate problem solving strategies, and interpret the solutions

6. Planned Sequence of Instruction [§335.2] [These must be designed to help students achieve the learning outcomes.]

GRAPHS OF LINEAR EQUATIONS IN TWO VARIABLES Rectangular coordinate system Graph linear equations Slope Intercepts Determine equation of line Parallel and perpendicular lines Midpoint Distance Applications

RELATIONS AND FUNCTIONS Determine whether a relation is a function Domain and range Function notation Linear functions Non-linear functions

SYSTEMS OF LINEAR EQUATIONS Solve systems of two linear equations Solve systems of three linear equations Applications

7. Assessment of Student Learning [§335.44] [Methods of assessment should be appropriate for Learning Outcomes listed above.]

Assessment of student learning outcomes for the course, as required by the Shared Governance Policy – Assessing Institutional Effectiveness, is part of regular curriculum maintenance and/or improvement. The specific plan has been determined by the pertinent faculty involved and is maintained in the College’s assessment management system.

Student assessment includes instructor requirements, required online component and departmental exit exam. Other forms of assessment may include, but are not limited to, the following: class participation, graded assignments, projects, portfolios, and/or quizzes. All assessment instruments cover course competencies on file in the Mathematics and Computer Science Department.
