Course Purpose: MATH 1351 is the second semester of a two-semester sequence (1350/1351) designed for prospective elementary and middle school teachers. This course extends the foundational ideas of mathematics so that the prospective teachers (E.C.-8) have an explicit understanding of these concepts. This sequence of courses transfers to UT-Austin as M316K and M316L and transfers to other four-year institutions.

Testing, other assessments, and grading: Your instructor will provide an additional handout with details about the assessment methods and grading policies.
Withdrawals: After the withdrawal date each semester, neither the student nor the instructor may initiate a withdrawal. It is the student's responsibility to initiate all withdrawals in this course. The instructor may withdraw students for excessive absences (4) or failure to meet course objectives but makes no commitment to do this for the student.
Incompletes: Incomplete (I) grades will be given only in very rare circumstances. Generally to receive a grade of "I", a student must have completed all assignments and formal assessments, be passing, and have a personal tragedy occur after the last date to withdraw which prevents course completion.
