Mathematics for Educators I

This course focuses on the critical Mathematical concepts necessary for students who are pursuing the Elementary Education Transfer Option in the General Education - Associate in Arts degree program. Students construct and apply problem solving techniques to solve problems, apply arithmetical operations on integers, rational numbers and decimals, and develop an understanding of mathematical relationships using equations, draw conclusions based upon geometric pattern and interpret data. Students construct geometric patterns and graphical data into algebraic equations; construct a geometric or graphical model given an algebraic equation. Instructor modeling is an integral component of the course.
