Course Objectives & Goals

Course Goal as defined by RGV-IHEs:

·  This course is intended to prepare students for the study of Intermediate Algebra and College Preparatory 2, a course that builds the foundation for the study of College Algebra and other entry level Mathematics courses. 

Additional Public Ed Goals:         

·  Students experience a combination of class and student-directed lab time to simulate the RGV - IHEs course structure, with a particular emphasis on mastery through student work in class and for homework.

·  Students manage their own learning through effective self-scheduling, self-monitoring, and effective peer study groups.
