The support course includes material to prepare students for the rigor of the transfer math course by teaching learning skills necessary to succeed in college courses as well as review of relevant prerequisite algebraic and geometric concepts, and more in-depth investigation of core concepts in their concurrent math course. Includes assignments to help you prepare for upcoming tests and/or to review a recent test and learn from your mistakes.  You will have opportunity to work on what YOU need to learn.  The support class does not have any homework. Corequisite: MATH 30 or MATH 39 or MATH 34. 54 hours.

Offered for credit (MATH 101C) or for tuition-free noncredit (NMAT 201C)

This course is just-in-time concurrent support for students enrolled in a first-level transfer course, such as Statistics, College Algebra, Trigonometry, Business Calculus, Mathematics for Liberal Arts, and Finite Mathematics. The support course is noncredit, open entry/open exit. The content will prepare students for the rigor the transfer math course by teaching learning skills necessary to succeed in college courses as well as review of relevant basic and secondary education prerequisite algebraic and geometric concepts, and more in-depth investigation of core concepts to their concurrent math course. The course design is to meet the needs of a variety of students, such as students who desire formal, regular ongoing learning supports, students wishing self-place into transfer-level mathematics courses as defined by AB 705, and students who are repeating the course for the second or third time. The support course includes a review of basic and secondary level math relevant to their college-level course, provides study strategies to promote understanding and improve performance, and more in-depth investigation of core concepts that are difficult for students to master and learning skills such as growth mindset, brain research, time management, study skills, test taking, math anxiety and more. Corequisite: MATH 30 or MATH 33 or MATH 34 or MATH 39 or MATH 40 or MATH 47. 1-54 hours.

Students can register for this class anytime during the semester in ClassWeb.
