Course Objectives

The course objectives are as follows:

1. Identify and apply mathematical formulae to solve specific problems.
2. Identify sound and unsound reasoning.
3. Identify relevant information and then develop a plan to solve a problem using an appropriate technique, such as: drawing pictures, considering simplified versions of the problem, organizing the given information into a table, writing down all relevant formulae or relationships among the given information.
4. Perform previously developed, multiple step procedures to solve a given problem.
5. Build a mathematical vocabulary in several content areas.
