Course We will examine ways to apply math to everyday life; general Description: problem solving, most efficient paths to reach a destination, interest, develop algorithms to schedule tasks, probability. We will use matrix tools, sequences such as Fibonacci, fractals and growth models.</p><p>II. Course http://alex.state.al.us/browseMath.php Objectives:</p><p>III. Classroom Students are expected to be in their seats with pencil and paper Expectations: ready before the tardy bell sounds.</p><p>Accommodations: Requests for accommodations for this course or any school event are welcomed from students and parents.</p><p>Concerning laptop utilization: 1. Student laptops should not be hard wired to the network or have print capabilities. 2. Use of discs, flash drives, jump drives, or other USB devices will not be allowed on Madison City computers. 3. Neither the teacher, nor the school is responsible for broken, stolen, or lost laptops. 4. Laptops and other electronic devices will be used at the individual discretion of the teacher. </p><p>IV. Grading Policy: Test grades will account for 70% of the 9-weeks grade, with the remaining 30% being determined by quiz/daily grades. The grading scale is as follows: A (90-100), B (80-89), C (70-79), D (65-69), and F (below 65). Grades will be a reflection of mastery of the standards. Make sure all absences are excused as class work can be made up and graded for excused absences only. The Final Exam counts for 1/5 of final grade. </p><p>V. Make-up Test TBA Policy:</p><p>VI.
