Skills Development (SD)
SD100 is for students whose placement scores suggest they are not ready for 100-level college math courses. Working in a computer lab and using adaptive learning software, students will work at their own pace while supported by an instructor. Diagnostic testing informs the software which modules each student needs on topics such as properties of whole numbers, principles of integers, and introduction to algebraic principles. It allows each to work at his or her own pace. Assessment at the end of the course determines students’ readiness for MA103, MA106, or MA109. 3 computer lab classes, 4 hours.
