Integrated Mathematics and Science for Teachers

Catalog description

This course presents an integrated approach to mathematics and science and their applications to problem solving. Topics in science include exploration of fundamental physical concepts, including transformation of energy, force and motion, waves, electricity and magnetism, and the atomic view of matter. Topics in mathematics include real numbers, representation and evaluation of functions, properties of linear and nonlinear functions, problem solving with and without linear equations, problem solving and representation of systems of linear equations, the relationship between symbolic expressions, and graphs of lines. Note: Successful completion of MTH-1210 , MTH-1220 , NSM-2500 satisfies the mathematics competency requirement for graduation for elementary education majors.
