After successfully completing this course, the student will:
1. Demonstrate understanding of the different ways numbers are represented and used in the real world.
2. Demonstrate understanding of number systems.
3. Demonstrate understanding of the effects of operations on numbers and the relationships among these operations, select appropriate operations, and compute for problem solving.
4. Use estimation in problem solving and computation. 5. Demonstrate understanding and apply theories related to numbers.
6. Measure quantities in the real world and use the measures to solve problems.
7. Compare, contrast, and convert within systems of measurement (both standard/nonstandard and metric/customary).
8. Estimate measurements in real-world problem situations.
9. Visualize and illustrate ways in which shapes can be combined, subdivided, and changed.
10. Use coordinate geometry to locate objects in two dimensions and to describe objects algebraically.
11. Describe, analyze, and generalize a wide variety of patterns, relations, and functions.
12. Use expressions, equations, inequalities, graphs, and formulas to represent and interpret situations.
13. Demonstrate understanding and use the tools of data analysis for managing information.
14. Identify patterns and make predictions from an orderly display of data using concepts of probability and statistics.
15. Use statistical methods to make inferences and valid arguments about real-world situations.
