Description
This course utilizes an inquiry -based approach to gain understanding of mathematical concepts at the concrete, representational and abstract levels. Topics include problem solving, sets, algebraic thinking, the study of numeration systems, fundamental operations of arithmetic (properties and algorithms), the extended number system and proportional reasoning. The processes of problem solving (representation, reasoning, making connections, and communication of ideas) are emphasized throughout the course. Direct connections are made between course content and the State Standards for mathematics.
Pre-requisites: Math 103, with a grade of C or better.
