Description of Mathematics

MATH 030
PREAL GEBRA 

4 Units or 1 Unit each/Prerequisite: MATH 020 or MATH 021 with a “C” or
better or appropriate assessment.
Advisory: READ 023 or appropriate assessment and ENGL 030 or ESL 037
or appropriate assessment.

This course is designed primarily for students who know the fundamentals
of arithmetic, and have had little or no background in algebra. The course
strengthens the student’s arithmetic and informal geometry skills, provides
an introduction to the abstractions of algebra using fundamental principles
of rational numbers , order of operations, and solving linear equations. Students
may enroll in Math 030 in a lecture section for four units of credit,
or individual one-unit modules 030A, 030B, 030C, and 030D in the Math
and Science Center (MSC). Instruction in the MSC sections is given on
an independent tutorial, open-entry basis which must be taken sequentially in
the MSC over a maximum period of 24 months.

MATH 030 ON LINE COURSES

8-WEEK SESSION
(JUNE 22 – AUGUST 14, 2009)
ONLINE COURSE ACCESS: ONLINE.RIOHONDO.EDU

This course is a modularized version of Math 030, which allows greater
flexibility for the student to complete the course on-line. The majority of
coursework is completed on-line, with one proctored written exam required
for each module. It is recommended that you sign up for only one module
at a time (each 1 unit).

Contact Jan LaTurno prior to registration for
important information on software/hardware requirements which exceed
Virtual College specifications. Also contact the instructor if you wish to start
earlier than June 22.
