Math - Developmental (MTHD)


MTHD 101. MATHEMATICS PLACEMENT LAB. 1 Credit.

Notes: Does not count toward the 180 credit requirement. Graded Pass/No Credit.
This course includes a practice placement assessment, access to a math prep module for students to review math topics, study skill strategies, information on where to find mathematics assistance at EWU and an official mathematics placement assessment score for math registration purposes at EWU.

MTHD 103. BASIC ALGEBRA/COLLEGE STUDENTS. 5 Credits.

Notes: does not count toward the 180 credit requirement.
Intended to be a review of foundational math concepts to prepare students for further work in MTHD 104 or MTHD 106. Topics include algebraic properties of number systems, the algebra of polynomials, and algebraic, graphical and numerical solutions to equations and inequalities.

MTHD 104. INTERMEDIATE ALGEBRA/COLLEGE STUDENTS. 5 Credits.

Notes: does not count toward the 180 credit requirement.
Pre-requisites: approved score in MTHD 103 or mathematics placement assessment (MPA) or ≥C in approved transfer course.
Satisfies: completion of this course with a grade ≥C satisfies pre university basic skill.
Topics studied are linear equations and functions, and linear systems of equations. Problem solving, use of graphing tools, and quantitative and abstract reasoning are emphasized. Intended to help build conceptual foundations and algebraic fluency for eventual work in Precalculus I.

MTHD 106. ALGEBRA REASONING. 5 Credits.

Notes: intended for students who are planning to use MATH 107, MATH 208, or MATH 121 to complete the university proficiency in mathematics; does not count toward the 180 credit requirement.
Pre-requisites: approved score in MTHD 103 or placement test score equivalent to placement into MTHD 104.
Satisfies: completion of this course with a grade ≥C satisfies pre university basic skill.
Leads to mastery of basic algebraic skills involving linear models, systems of equations, proportional reasoning, exponential growth, and logarithmic growth. Develops reasoning skills in the areas of problem solving, unit conversion, graphical interpretation, and interpreting rates of change.
