MATH • Math Emporium Classes ............. pg. 50 • Lecture Classes. ............................ pg. 51 • All Concurrent Support................. pg. 52 • Math Jam...................................... pg. 54 • NonCredit (Tuition-Free) Math Classes and Concurrent Supports . ......... pg. 58 MATH EMPORIUM The Math Emporium is a mode in which students have the ability to complete their foundational math courses, associate level math courses, and Technical Math sequence in a personalized mode. This mode allows students to self-accelerate through the material in a way that is unique to each student’s needs. Students will learn study skills and tips along with the math while working on their lab assignments. Students will decide when they are ready to take a test and take the length of time they need when testing (within the hours of operation). Students registering for a Math Emporium course are required to purchase and use the internet based soft-ware MyMathLab, which contains an online version of the textbook. MATH 52A TECH.
