Math Foundations 1 This is a self-paced, skill mastery developmental mathematics course. It is an individualized, computer-based learning experience which is an alternative delivery to the traditional developmental math sequence offered at Lake Superior College. The instructor will provide instruction, guidance, and monitor progress. A course placement test will determine which modules a student has yet to complete. Students must complete four modules in modules 1-11 with 80% mastery to pass the course; however students have the option of completing as many modules as needed in one semester. Students mastering modules 1-7 will have the equivalent of MATH0460; modules 8-11 is equivalent to MATH0470. If students in Math Foundations choose to register in the traditional developmental math sequence, the completion of module equivalents or a new Accuplacer score (at student cost) will determine their placement.
Math Foundations 1 is a pre-requisite course to Math Foundations 2 where students will be able to continue their individual developmental mathematical studies without repetition of previously mastered modules. (Prerequisite: students must have taken the Accuplacer Mathematics exam and place in the developmental math sequence: 33-70 on the elementary algebra test OR 70-120 on the arithmetic test OR 50-75 on the arithmetic diagnostic test; AND READ/ENGL0950 (can be taken concurrently) or placement score of 56 or higher on reading comprehension test) (3 hrs lec/0 hrs lab/0 hrs OJT)
