This is an introductory course for ETA/MEA apprentices which covers the basics of College Algebra. This course is meant to get students familiar with and gain competency in algebra and various techniques used to solve algebraic equations. A basic understanding of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division is the only requirement needed upon entering this course. The course is intended to serve students who will work directly with electrical equipment or on behalf of those who do; the topics covered will give students the ability to solve mathematical problems they may face on the job. Topics covered include but are not limited to fundamental concepts of algebra, functions, polynomials, exponential and logarithmic functions, systems of equations, and complex numbers. This course will consist of 6 modules, 2 quizzes, and 1 final exam. Module availability is open and can be completed at the student’s individual pace. Project and assignments will be completed in groups. Assignments will be due approximately every 1-2 weeks depending on the assignment and module availability. The final project will be evaluated within 1 week of submission. Communication will take place primarily via email and instructor announcements. At the end of the course, you would have learned the fundamentals of the various programs in College Algebra.
