| Welcome
to Math 100
Roger
Bacon, the English philosopher and scientist, wrote
" Mathematics is the gate and key of the sciences"...Neglect
of mathematics works injury to all knowledge, since he who
is ignorant of it cannot know the other sciences or the things
of this world." This is the first course enabling you
to turn the "key" to mathematics. Math is the basis
for a number of subjects that you will use in your daily lives.
I have
designed this course for your success and enjoyment. Embedded
in my class site are numerous links to web pages that are
intended to enhance your learning and understanding of mathematics.
I have included tutoring sites, power point presentations
on key concepts, guided solutions to homework problems, how
to study for tests, how to take a test, and sample exams.
While
these pages offer a brief overview of the course, your actual
coursework will take place inside the Course Compass web site.
The course orientation for students is online and
can be accessed by clicking on the "Online Orientation"
from my home page. Once you have completed the orientation,
please post an introduction of yourself in the Discussion
Board. You MUST complete this registration to remain in the
class. I do not use Desire to Learn for this class. Instead
this course uses a publisher's website. So students must register
both at CRC and Course Compass.
Again,
welcome to my site and I look forward to having you in the
class.
