Students explore these tools from four points of view: geometric, numerical, algebraic, and verbal. Each topic is introduced through assigned readings followed by in-class discussion and collaboration on conceptual and applied problems. AU Core Foundation: Quantitative Literacy I. AU Core Integrative Requirement: Quantitative Literacy II. Usually Offered: fall and spring. Prerequisite: MATH-211 or MATH-221. Note: Registration eligibility may be determined by appropriate score on the Mathematics Placement test.
