Portland Community College | Portland, Oregon

Thank you for considering this on-campus MTH 199U + MTH 199V pair of courses!  You must register for both CRNs (45019 and 45020) to be able to take either course and you will earn separate grades in each course.

• MTH 199U is a new course that we’re developing and the main goal of this course is to prepare you for MTH 111Z. It is currently in the pilot stage so thank you for being a part of this new pilot.
• MTH 199V is a “corequisite support” course for MTH 199U. It will be used to supplement your learning, both in terms of math and general studentship skills.

This class will take a lot of your time because it is a 5-credit class (4 math credits and 1 elective corequisite support course). In a typical week, you can expect to spend:

• 7 hours in class working with the class on math. Time in class will be active. You can expect a lot of group work and time to engage in math. 
• 8 hours outside of class doing (preparation assignments, practice assignments, studying, visiting the tutoring center, working with the mentor...) 

Please know that I am here to support you and encourage you to reach out with any questions you may have.

To participate in our class, you'll need:

• dependable internet access,
• device with web browser

We will be using an online homework and learning system.  While I haven’t decided on the exact system we’ll be using, it will be free.

A graphing calculator is not required for the course.  Instead, we will use a free app called Desmos for graphing, when a graphing utility is appropriate.
