Credit: 3 Hours

Additional Material(s) Needed: Students are required to have an Access Account to use the "MyMath Lab" website ( "http://www.coursecompass.com/ccindex.html ) for assignments, practice tests and lab-tests. They are also required to use a Graphing Calculator; TI-83 is recommended

Course Description: An extension of algebra topics from MTH 151 and a treatment of trigonometry necessary for the study of advanced subjects in mathematics and sciences. A special emphasis is given to exponential and logarithmic functions, trigonometric functions, trigonometric identities, and trigonometric applications necessary for the study of advanced subjects in mathematics and the sciences.

Prerequisites: Completion of MTH 151 with a minimum grade of "C" or demonstrated competency per the Placement Test.

Academic Integrity Policies / Attendance Policy Students are expected to attend all class sessions. Missing 20% or more of such sessions may result in an automatic failing grade. Those individuals who choose not to show up for class by the end of the third week will be deleted from the roster. Further information regarding academic or academically related misconducts, and disciplinary procedures and sanctions regarding such conducts, may be obtained by consulting the NSU Student Handbook. Also, see attachment for additional information regarding this class.

Attendance will be taken daily. Students are expected to attend all class sessions. Any student not attending class for the first 3-weeks of the semester will be officially dropped from the roster, as having never attended class. Missing 20% or more of such sessions may result in an automatic failing grade.

Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) Statement In accordance with Section 504 of the 1973 Rehabilitation Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990, if you have a disability or think you have a disability, contact Supporting Students through Disability Services (SSDS) for information regarding programs and services to enhance student success.

University Assessment Statement As part of NSU's commitment to provide the environment and resources needed for success, students may be required to participate in a number of university-wide assessment activities. The activities may include tests, surveys, focus groups and interviews, and portfolio reviews. The primary purpose of the assessment activities is the determine the extent to which the university's programs and services maintain a high level of quality and meet the needs of students. Students will not be identified in the analysis of results. Unless indicated otherwise by the instructor, results from university assessment activities will not be computed in student

Requirements for the Student:

1. The student should pre-study (read) all new topics before they are presented in class. You are expected to complete daily homework assignments by the time class meets the first time following discussion of lesson material in the classroom. The instructor will ascertain the daily progress in accomplishing homework exercises and will devote a portion of classroom activities to the solution of any "troublesome exercises".
2. Separate notebooks should be maintained for classroom discussion notes and homework exercises.
3. Carefully complete all homework assignments. A minimum of two hours outside the class preparing for each hour of class is necessary for learning and proper understanding of the material.
4. Students are strongly encouraged to participate in classroom discussions.
5. Tests will be administered during the course; also the student can expect random quizzes; a departmental final examination will also be given.
6. All cell phones, pages, etc. must be turned off before entering the classroom.
