FST 12 ACADEMY- FIREFIGHTER 1 AND 2 17.0 Units This course provides the skills and knowledge needed for the entry-level firefighter to perform structural suppression activities, wildland fire suppression activities and hazardous materials mitigation and containment activities. This course covers topics inbothFirefighter 1andFirefighter 2 inaccordance with the California State Fire Marshall 2019 Curriculum. Prerequisite: EMS 30 with a minimum grade of C or A valid State of California EMT or PARAMEDIC license issued by the CA EMSA also meet this prerequisite. and FST 1 with a minimum grade of C and FST 7 with a minimum grade of C or A valid CPAT ( Candidate Physical Agility Test) or a BIDDLE (Firefighter Physical Agility) test also meet this prerequisite. FRENCH FREN 1B ELEMENTARY FRENCH 5.0 Units This is the second semester of the introductory level course and will enable students to continue to learn to speak, read and write elementary level French as well as to understand the spoken language. Students are introduced to concepts of grammar, vocabulary and verb tenses in a variety of auditory, visual and written contexts. Prerequisite: FREN 1Awith aminimumgrade of C or appropriate skill level demonstrated through the assessment process. GEOGRAPHY GEOG 1 INTRO TO PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY 3.0 Units This course is a spatial study of the Earth’s dynamic physical system and processes. Topics include: Earth-sun geometry, weather, climate, water, landforms, soil, and the biosphere with emphasis on spatial characteristics, change over time, interactions between environmental components, and human-environment interactions. Tools of geographic inquiry are also briefly covered; they include maps, remote sensing, Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Global Positioning Systems (GPS). GEOG 1L INTRO. PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY LAB 1.0 Units This course is designed to provide supplemental exercises in topics covered in physical geography lecture. Lab experience will include map analysis and interpretation, weather prognostication, landform processes and evolution, tectonics, biogeography, and habitat analysis. Prerequisite: GEOG 1 with a minimum grade of C (may be taken concurrently) GEOG 2 CULTURAL GEOGRAPHY 3.0 Units Thecourse is a studyof diversehumanpopulations, their cultural origins, diffusion and contemporary spatial expressions. Topics include: demography, languages and religions, urbanization and landscape and religions, urbanization and landscape modification, political units and nationalism, and economic systems and development. GEOG 5 WORLD REGIONAL GEOGRAPHY 3.0 Units Survey of the world’s culture regions and nations as interpreted by geographers, including physical, cultural, and economic features. Emphasis on spatial and historical influences on population growth, transportation networks, and natural environments. Identification and importance of the significant features of regions. GEOG 15 INTRODUCTION TO GIS 3.0 Units Study of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) science and its applications to spatial data management. Identification and acquisition of GIS data. Assessment of vector and raster systems, scale, resolution, map projection, coordinate systems, georeferencing and Global Positioning Systems (GPS). Spatial analysis and modeling with GIS. GEOLOGY GEOL 1 PHYSICAL GEOLOGY 3.0 Units The Earth, its materials, its internal and external processes, and its development through time. Emphasis is placed on a thorough global understanding of Plate Tectonics as a framework and foundation for subsequent geologic topics and concepts. Topics include volcanoes, earthquakes and seismology, the Geologic Time Scale and the formation of the earth, rocks and minerals, hydrology, erosion, beach systems, environmental geology, glaciation, groundwater, etc. Course content includes the difference between theory and fact and the historical development of key geologic concepts. This is the foundation course for almost all subsequent geology courses for both geology majors and non-majors. The Geology 1 lab may be taken concurrently with the lecture, or during a later term. Enrollment in the lecture course does not automatically enroll the student in the lab course; students must enroll in the lab course separately. GEOL 1L PHYSICAL GEOLOGY LABORATORY 1.0 Units Laboratory course to supplement the physical geology lecture course. Introduction to the materials and techniques of geology. Includes minerals, rocks, topographic and geologic maps, structural geology, identification and interpretation of landforms, geologic time, and relative age dating analysis, etc. Prerequisite: GEOL 1 or GEOL 5 or GEOL 7 with a minimum grade of C (May be taken concurrently). GEOL 12 INTRODUCTION TO OCEANOGRAPHY 3.0 Units Introduction to the oceans, the history of oceanic science, instrumentation and exploration; marine geology including plate tectonics and shoreline processes; physical and chemical properties of sea water; causes and effects of currents, tides, and waves; introduction to the basic types of marine life, the basic marine habitats and ecosystems; distribution of marine resources and the Law of the Sea. GEOL 12L INTRO TO OCEANOGRAPHY LAB 1.0 Units Laboratory course to supplement the oceanography lecture course. Introduction to the materials and techniques of oceanic science. Includes sea floor rocks, oceanic geography, bathymetric maps, seismic reflection, seawater physics and chemistry, beach sand, tides, waves, marine life and marine fossils, sea floor spreading rates, etc. Prerequisite: GEOL12 (may be taken concurrently).
