(Enrollment Based)

Course No: OTSLA, OTSLB

Semesters: 1-2, Credits .5 -1

This course will not replace Algebra I, Geometry, or Mathematical Models with Applications.

This course is intended to create strategic mathematical learners. Basic understandings will stimulate students to think about their approach to mathematical learning. These basic understanding will include identifying errors in the teaching and learning process, input errors, and key cognitive skills. The essential knowledge and skills will foster a deeper understanding of the task of learning mathematical concepts. The use of personal data and statistical analysis will aid in the creation of knowing the individual student and their mathematical needs.

Students enrolled in this course will have demonstrated a need for intervention on STAAR, EOC Algebra I, other assessments or coursework.

Considerations: District data will be used to determine students in need of support and accelerated math intervention as per Senate Bill 1153.
