I earned my Master's in Mathematics Education through the University of South Florida in 2007. I believe that people can learn through practice and following procedures, as well as through understanding the underlying principles.

|
| Credits: |
3 |
| Description: |
Prerequisite: MAT 1033 or appropriate score on the SPC mathematics placement test. This course is a general survey course in mathematics and covers a number of traditional, independent topics and will include topics related to mathematical logic, sets and systematic counting, probability, statistics, geometry and critical thinking skills. This course satisfies three credits of the mathematics requirements outlined in the General Education Requirements, but is not a prerequisite to any other mathematics course. (Credit will be given only for MGF 1113 or MGF 1106.) 47 contact hours. |
