What is the Math Emporium?

In this mode, students have the ability to complete their basic skills math courses in a personalized mode.

Students will:

  • Work at their own pace through lectures, homework sets and labs.
  • Attend workshops on topics they feel they need help with.
  • Decide when they are ready to take a test within a flexible window.
  • Demonstrate understanding of a certain percentage of the material before moving on to the next chapter.
  • No longer just struggle to get by, but will build a stronger foundation for their future material.
  • Have flexibility in when they complete the course: early, on time, or the following semester.

 

What kind of student excels in the Emporium Model?

  • Student who attend every class day.
  • Students who work diligently on material both in class and outside of class.
  • Students who construct a good working relationship with their instructor and instructional assistants.
  • Students who take full advantage of all support resources available online, in-class and on campus.
  • Students who are committed to learning.
