Course (catalog) Description This 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, statistics, square roots, graphing, and polynomials. The arithmetic topics treated include rational numbers, decimals, percents, and measurement. Learning Objectives It is presumed that students will spend a minimum of two hours outside class for each hour in class in order to meet the following objectives: A. Perform the fundamental operations with whole numbers. B. Perform the fundamental operations with integers. C. Perform the fundamental operations with rational numbers. D. Perform the fundamental operations with decimals and percents. E. Use the techniques of arithmetic to solve application problems. F. Graph and interpret points on a Cartesian coordinate system. G. Calculate measurements of geometric figures. H. Solve simple linear equations using rational numbers. I. Interpret and apply simple statistical concepts such as the mean, median and mode. J. Calculate square roots and apply them to formulas such as the Pythagorean Theorem. K. Evaluate one-variable polynomials. Academic Integrity Students, Faculty and administration at Oakton Community College are required to demonstrate academic integrity and follow Oakton's 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, making unauthorized changes in official documents, pretending to be someone else or having someone else to 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. Oakton's policies and procedures provide students with a fair hearing if a complaint is made. 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. Course Expectations Your regular attendance is expected and will be important to your success in this class. As such, an attendance sheet will circulate each class meeting. It is your responsibility to make sure that you sign the attendance sheet each session. Coming to class late (or leaving early) is a distraction. If it is necessary for you to leave early - or if you arrive late (for whatever reason), you will be considered to have been absent for half of the class. Absences in excess of four will result in lowering your grade 10%, with the exception of illnesses, which require a doctor's note in order to be excused. Dont use up all your absences frivolously at the beginning of the semester; you may need them unexpectedly at the end of the semester. If it is necessary for you to miss class, you are still responsible for the material missed. You may find it beneficial to exchange phone numbers with a 'study buddy'. Office hours will not be used to replace regular class attendance. Every student is expected to participate in class during group work and lecture. Come prepared for class. This includes: Study the appropriate section(s) in the textbook. Review the lecture notes. It is highly recommended that you review each lecture on the day it was presented. Do all assigned homework. Prepare for the next class by reading section(s) to be covered at the next class session. Ask for clarification if you don't understand something. If you don't feel comfortable asking questions in class, please ask them via e-mail or during office hours. The tutoring center (room A136) is another excellent resource for answers. Academic integrity. All work is expected to be your own. Students are expected to maintain a classroom environment that allows learning for all students. If you would rather sleep, read extraneous material, do homework in class or hold side conversations, you will be asked to utilize one of your absences. Assignments, Quizzes and Exams Homework will be done online, with the exception of the first assignment, which is due no later than 12:05 on 1/16/08. If you encounter difficulties, go to the tutoring center or come visit me during my office hours. Homework will be due at 11:55 on Thursdays (again, with the exception of the first assignment, which will be collected by 11:05 pm). Because of the need to stay current with the material, I cannot accept late assignments, but will drop the lowest homework assignment if you have missed no more than 2 classes. There will be approximately 9 quizzes and they may or may not be announced in advance. Quizzes cannot be made up, but the lowest quiz score will be dropped if you have missed no more than two classes. If it is necessary for you to miss a quiz, a zero will be assigned. There will be four hourly exams and a comprehensive final exam. The dates of these exams are listed below. As a rule, make-up exams are not put in the testing center. The instructor will only put one make-up exam per student in the testing center per semester and the exam will only be placed in the testing center by the instructor per student request and only on the condition that a serious, unavoidable reason is provided in writing as to why the student is/was not able to take the exam at the arranged time in class. It is generally the case that makeup exams are more difficult than the exam given during the usual meeting time. All make-up exams MUST be taken BEFORE the exam is reviewed the next period. If it is necessary for you to miss an exam for unexpected reasons, it is YOUR responsibility to contact me BEFORE the start of class at (847) 376-7071. You will need your own calculator for use on quizzes and exams. Calculators may not be shared and you are not permitted to use more than one calculator on an exam or quiz. Cellular phones and the like may not be used as a calculator in class.

The decision to grant the "I" grade will be made by the instructor alone. No incomplete grades will be given without documented evidence of serious illness or circumstances.
