CATALOG DESCRIPTION -- The catalog description should clearly describe for students the scope of the course, its level, and what kinds of student goals the course is designed to fulfill. The catalog description should begin with a sentence fragment .A review course covering material from Math 380 (Elementary Algebra). This review course is designed for students preparing to place into Math 120 (Intermediate Algebra). Content will include: review of linear equations and linear inequalities in one variable; review of linear equations in two variables; review of systems of linear equations ; review of integer exponents and polynomials; review of factoring; and review of radical expressions and equations. Special notes or advisories (e.g. field trips required, prior admission to special program required, etc.):This is a review course. Extensive work on a computer homework system will be required.PREREQUISITE COURSE(S) No Yes Course(s): Rationale for Prerequisite: Describe representative skills without which the student would be highly unlikely to succeed. COREQUISITE COURSE(S) Curriculum Proposal: 01/23/09 (rev.) Page 2 of 6Academic Senate Approved: pendingNo Yes Course(s): Rationale for Corequisite: RECOMMENDED PREPARATIONNo Yes Course(s): High School Algebra I and Geometry or Math 380Rationale for Recommended Preparation: This is a review course. Completion of at least two years of high school mathematics or Elementary Algebra at a community college is needed for this course to be considered review.COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES –This section answers the question “what will students be able to do as a result of taking this course?” State some of the objectives in terms of specific, measurable student actions (e.g. discuss, identify, describe, analyze, construct, compare, compose, display, report, select, etc.). For a more complete list of outcome verbs please see Public Folders>Curriculum>Help Folder>SLO Language Chart. Each outcome should be numbered.1) Demonstrate the skills required to pass the placement exam which will allow the student to enroll in the proper level of mathematics. This will be assessed at the end of each module. These assessments will include: solving linear equations, graphing linear equations, polynomials and factoring and, simplifying radical expressions.COURSE CONTENT–This section describes what the course is “about”-i.e. what it covers and what knowledge students will acquire Concepts: What terms and ideas will students need to understand and be conversant with as they demonstrate course outcomes? Each concept should be numbered. 1. A systematic, step-wise problem-solving process.2. The presentation of mathematical
