This course is not intended to be your first exposure to mathematics and will not teach the subject. This course gives an opportunity to practice and assess your grasp and mastery of standard middle- to high-school-level subject matter. Should you discover that you need to learn or relearn the concepts presented in this course, we recommended that you take the following courses as needed before attempting a teacher licensing exam:
This unit reviews different basic mathematical concepts and skills necessary before achieving mastery in Algebra, Geometry, and Statistics. Before starting any of the other units in this course, you should already be able to identify real numbers and their locations on the number line, solve problems using four operations with rational numbers, and interpret expressions involving the order of operations. To test your grasp of these concepts, do the practice activities in this unit and complete the unit assessment. These are ungraded opportunities to check your understanding.
Completing this unit should take you approximately 3 hours.
In this unit, you will explore the properties of basic geometric two-dimensional and three-dimensional shapes, as well as the units of measurements of geometric and physical properties of objects.
Completing this unit should take you approximately 32 hours.
This unit explores several essential algebra skills: working with algebraic expressions, solving linear and quadratic equations, and representing them on the coordinate plane. You will also learn how to apply algebraic expressions, equations, and graphs to describe and analyze word problems.
Completing this unit should take you approximately 26 hours.
This unit is devoted to statistics, a branch of mathematics concerned with representation, analysis, and interpretation of data. It also involves the study of probability, which is the analysis of outcomes of random events.
Completing this unit should take you approximately 11 hours.
