Course (Catalog) Description: Course prepares students for an introductory algebra course by covering the fundamental concepts, operations, and applications of arithmetic in basic algebraic contexts, including linear equations and graphing. Arithmetic topics include integers, fractions, decimals, percents, measurement and signed numbers. This is an introduction to sets, signed numbers, equations, exponents, polynomials, factoring and graphing. Computer software will be utilized to facilitate learning objectives. IV. Course Objectives: Module 6 Objectives: Solving and graphing first degree equations in one variable. Successfully solving formulas for specific variables. Demonstrating the ability to solve applied problems involving first degree equations in one variable. Successfully solving and graphing first degree inequalities in one variable. Module 7 Objectives: Being able to simplify expressions using the laws of exponents. Demonstrated abilty to calculate using Scientific Notation. Being able to perform addition and subtraction of polynomials. Performing multiplication of polynomials including some special products. Performing division of a polynomial by a monomial. Module 8 Objectives: Being able to factor out the greatest common factor from a polynomial. Factoring trinomials successfully. Being able to factor polynomials using the difference of squares. Providing evidence of the ability to solve quadratic equations by factoring. Module 9 Objectives: Solve and graph first degree equations in two variables. Calculate slope and intercepts of linear equations in two variables. Solve applied problems involving slope. Solve and graph first degree inequalities in two variables. Module 10 Objectives: Recognizing and applying concepts involved pertaining to functions. Solving problems involving direct and indirect variation sucessfully. Being able to solve systems of two equations using Graphing, Substitution, and Addition methods. Recognizing and applying concepts regarding applied problems involving systems of two equations. V. Academic Integrity: Students and employees at Oakton Community College are required to demonstrate academic integrity and follow Oaktons Code of Academic Conduct. This code prohibits: cheating, plagiarism (turning in work not written by you, or lacking proper citation), falsification and fabrication (lying or distorting the truth), helping others to cheat, unauthorized changes on official documents, pretending to be someone else or having someone else pretend to be you, making or accepting bribes, special favors, or threats, and any other behavior that violates academic integrity. There are serious consequences to violations of the academic integrity policy. Oaktons policies and procedures provide students a fair hearing if a complaint is made against you. If you are found to have violated the policy, the minimum penalty is failure on the assignment and, a disciplinary record will be established and kept on file in the office of the Vice President for Student Affairs for a period of 3 years. Details of the Code of Academic Conduct can be found in the Student Handbook. VI.

Methods of Instruction: Methods of instruction include one-on-one and/or small group discussion, and required website ancillaries. Calculators/computers will be used. VIII. Course Practices Required: This course will be taught by a classroom instructor with the use of an interactive computer website. Course participants must attend scheduled class hours as well as one computer lab hour per week. Students may be dropped from the course if they miss more than three class sessions or three lab hours. The course is divided into five modules. Each module must be completed with a minimal post-test score of 80% to proceed to the next module. All course work must be completed in a notebook. Course may be taught as face-to-face, media-based, hybrid or online course. Students may complete a course at any time during the semester. Upon completion of a course, the student can start the next sequential course. A new access code must be purchased at that time. If all modules of a course are not successfully completed within a semester, the student can re-enroll in the same course the following semester beginning with their first uncompleted module. Instructional Materials: Textbook information for each course and section is available on Oaktons Schedule of Classes. Within the Schedule of Classes, textbooks can be found by clicking on an individual course section and looking for the words View Book Information. Textbooks can also be found at our Mathematics Textbooks page. A scientific calculator is required. X. Methods of Evaluating Student Progress: Students must complete the following work with the following minimal scores: Homework, class work, and study plans (unlimited attempts) 100% Quizzes (unlimited attempts) 90% Module Posttest 85% XI. Other Course Information: If you have a documented learning, psychological, or physical disability you may be entitled to reasonable academic accommodations or services. To request accommodations or services, contact the ASSIST office in the Learning Center. All students are expected to fulfill essential course requirements. The College will not waive any essential skill or requirement of a course or degree program.
