Course Description: Designed for the student planning to take calculus, MATH 140, but who has insufficient knowledge of analytic geometry, trigonometry, and functions. Topics include real numbers, inequalities, analytic geometry, linear and quadratic functions, polynomials and rational functions, trigonometry, and exponential and logarithmic functions. (Taken from 2003-2004 Undergraduate Catalog).

Course Ojectives:  Students who successfully complete this course will have developed:

• the mathematical background needed for MATH 140, and
• an increased confidence in their ability to do and understand mathematics

Homework: Homework is assigned at the end of class and then posted on my web page. From my experience, students who do their homework are more likely to pass the class than those who don't do homework. I encourage students to work together on homework and when studying for examinations.

Make-up Policy: Make-up for an examination must be requested prior to the examination and will be given at the discretion of the instructor.

Students with disabilities: If you believe you have a disability, you should make an appointment to see me to discuss your needs. In order to receive an accommodation, your disability must be on record in the Academic Advising Center, 594.8763, Administration building, Room 125

 Mathematics Tutoring Lab: In G-114 is the Department of Mathematics Tutoring Lab. Students and faculty are in the lab to help other students with difficulties in their mathematics classes, including Math 130. The hours of the lab are posted on hallway bulletin boards and on the door of G-114.

IDEA Objectives:

1.) Gaining factual knowledge (terminology, classifications, methods, trends)

2.) Learning fundamental principles, generalizations, or theories

3.) Learning to apply course material (to improve thinking, problem solving, and decisions)

Success:   Students who do the following will successfully complete the course and learn mathematics in the process. This course requires a strong background in Algebra.

• Attend every class, listen to the instructor, and take notes
• Do all assigned homework, shortly after the class when it was assigned
• Get immediate help from the instructor or tutor when encountering problems
• Participate in class discussion when questions are asked and ask appropriate questions in a timely manner
• Re-read (re-copy) notes shortly after each class
• Study for examinations; especially doing the review assignment
• Do additonal problems from the textbook
• Get to class on time and bring all necessary materials
