techniques for solving higher order linear differential equations with constant coefficients (general theory, undetermined coefficients, reduction of order and the method of variation of parameters), with emphasis on interpreting the behavior of the solutions, and applications to physical models whose governing equations are of higher order; the Laplace transform as a tool for the solution of initial value problems whose inhomogeneous terms are discontinuous. CODE A (3-0-0) Prerequisite: Grade of C or higher in MTH100 or higher, or appropriate mathematics placement score This course is designed to develop a deeper understanding of elementary school mathematics content needed for teaching. The course is designed to develop conceptual understanding of number systems and operations by focusing on basic concepts and principles, exploring multiple representations and strategies, and illuminating connections among concepts and procedures. Topics include whole numbers and integers, fractions, ratio, percent, decimals, and arithmetic operations within these systems. CODE B (3-0-0) Prerequisite: Grade of C or higher in MTH100 or higher, or appropriate mathematics placement score This course is designed to provide mathematical insights into measurement and geometry for students majoring in elementary education.
