Mathematical Measurement and Literacy

Prerequisites: None

Corequisites: None

Effective Term: Summer 2024

This course provides an activity-based approach that develops measurement skills and mathematical literacy using technology to solve problems for non-math intensive programs. Topics include unit conversions and estimation within a variety of measurement systems; ratio and proportion; basic geometric concepts; financial literacy; and statistics including measures of central tendency, dispersion, and charting of data. Upon completion, students should be able to demonstrate the use of mathematics and technology to solve practical problems, and to analyze and communicate results.

Competencies

·Student Learning Outcomes
·1. Demonstrate estimation skills and justify results.
·2. Use dimensional analysis to convert units of measurement.
