This course is designed for students majoring in business, social sci- ences, and life sciences. This course provides an overview of descriptive and inferential statistics. The students learn to read, interpret and present data in a well-organized way. This includes frequency distributions, graphs, measures of central tendency and variability, correlation and linear regression. While discussing inferential statistics, the students learn to make generalizations about populations. This includes probabil- ity, sampling techniques, confidence intervals, and hypothesis tests.

Transfers to: UC, CSU
This course is designed to deepen and extend the student’s under- standing of the foundations of the mathematics taught in elementary school. Because it is intended for the student preparing to teach at that level, it frequently refers to and uses materials and methodology appropri- ate for students at that level, but it is not a methods course. The course is concept-driven with an emphasis on problem solving. Concrete manipu- latives are used to give meaning to abstract mathematical concepts. Topics include numeration and place value concepts, models and algo- rithms for operations with whole numbers, integers, fractions and deci- mals, and the structure and proper- ties of the real number system.
