DEVELOPMENTAL
MATHEMATICS
DSPM 0700
Basic Mathematics
Topics for instruction include operations involving fractions, decimals,
and integers; and problems involving percent, ratio and proportion,
graphs, basic geometry, systems of measurement, and basic statistics.
Algebra is introduced through evaluation of expressions and solutions of
equations. Methods for solving real-world applications are
integrated throughout the course content. Upon earning a grade of
"C" or better, the student advances to Elementary Algebra, DSPM 0800.
DSPM0800
Elementary Algebra
Topics for instructions include integers, algebraic operations, linear
equations, inequalities, functions, graphing techniques, and systems of
equations. Methods for solving real-world applications are
integrated throughout the course content. Upon earning a grade of
"C" or better, the student advances to Intermediate Algebra, DSPM 0850.
(Prerequisite: DSPM 0700 or entry assessment.)
DSPM0850
Intermediate Algebra
Topics for instruction include rules for exponents, polynomials, rational
expressions, rational equations, quadratic equations and functions,
conics, and radicals. Methods for solving real-world applications
are integrated throughout the course content. Upon earning a grade
of "C" or better, the student becomes eligible to enter the first year
college-level mathematics courses. (Prerequisite: DSPM 0800 or entry
assessment.)
