Course Description
Prerequisite: teacher approval. TI-83; TI-83 Plus; TI-83 Plus SE; TI- 84 Plus or TI-84 Plus SE graphing calculator required. This course is designed to provide students, having varied background and abilities, with a realistic course which will provide skills to cope with demands which a technological society makes on the non-specialist. It is not intended to develop techniques to the same depth as other subsidiary level math courses. A substantial piece of work in the form of a project will be required in order to compensate for the reduction in technical skills required. Students who might require mathematics in the pursuit of further qualification or in future careers are advised to consider another math course.
