MATH 7 - Support Topics for Intermediate Algebra

The following are the Student Learning Outcomes (SLOs) and Course Measurable Objectives (CMOs) for MATH 5. A Student Learning Outcome is a measurable outcome statement about what a student will think, know, or be able to do as a result of an educational experience. Course Measurable Objectives focus more on course content, and can be considered to be smaller pieces that build up to the SLOs.

Student Learning Outcomes (SLOs)

1. Students feel that Math 7 has improved their overall mathematical understanding and ability in Math 71. (measured by survey provided by corequisite committee)
2. Math 7 students will be able to graph lines and write equations of lines given specific information about the lines.
3. Math 7 students will be able to solve a variety of equations and inequalities in one variable.

Course Measurable Objectives (CMOs)

1. Use integer exponent rules and rational exponents to simplify expressions.
2. Write equations of lines given specific information about the line.
3. Simplify and perform operations on polynomial, rational, radical, and logarithmic expressions.
4. Solve linear, quadratic, rational, radical, exponential, and logarithmic equations
5. Solve inequalities in one variable.
6. Solve absolute value equations and inequalities.
7. Solve systems of linear and nonlinear equations.
8. Solve literal equations.
9. Construct, interpret, and analyze graphs.
10. Graph a variety of functions and relations.
11. Solve a variety of application problems.
12. Communicate effectively in mathematical language.
