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.

MATH 050
ELEMENTARY ALGEBRA
4 Units or 1 Unit each/Prerequisite: MATH 030 with a grade of “C” or better
or appropriate assessment.
Advisory: READ 023 or appropriate assessment and ENGL 030 or ESL 037
or appropriate assessment.
This course is an introduction to the basic principles and skills of algebra.
It is designed primarily for those students who have no prior training in
algebra or need a review of the fundamentals of algebra. Topics include:
numbers and their properties , operations with real numbers, exponents,
solutions and graphs of linear equations , slopes of lines, system of linear
equations and applications, operations with polynomials including factoring,
solving quadratic equations , operations with simple rational and radical
expressions. Students may enroll in Math 050 in a lecture section for four
units of credit, or individual one-unit modules 050A, 050B, 050C, and 050D
in the Math and Science Center (MSC) or online. 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.
