**Please note that
the following dates are FLC holidays:
9/5, 11/11 & 11/24 & 11/25.
No testing will be available on these dates.
On Monday, December 12th, there will be one
additional time to take the final exam at FLC:
6 to 8 pm in FL2-239.
Testing Deadlines:
Testing deadlines for each class are provided in the
virtual classroom in Course Compass.
There are five exams during the semester and a comprehensive final
examination, each with a specific deadline. Please note that there are no
extensions allowed for testing deadlines.
Final exam must be
taken by Monday, December 12th.
An in-person orientation is mandatory.
You may attend either Monday, 8/22/11 at
12:30 pm or Wednesday, 8/24/11 at 6:30 pm.
Both orientations will be held at FLC in FL3-173. Watch your email - you
will receive an email from your instructor with instructions on how to opt out
of the mandatory orientation in mid August.
Pre-Requisite Information:
Math 30 Completion of Math 20 with a C or
better or placement via the assessment process
Math 100 Completion of Math 30 with a C or better
or placement via the assessment process
Math 120 Completion of Math 100 with a C or
better or placement via the assessment process
Please bring proof of your pre-requisite
with you to your orientation or, if possible, email proof to your instructor. If you satisfied the pre-requisite by taking
a math class in the Los Rios district (ARC, SCC, CRC, or FLC), you can show an
(unofficial) transcript with a grade of C or better. If you satisfied the pre-requisite by taking
an assessment test at CRC, SCC or FLC, you can show the page with your
placement listed that you received from the assessment personnel. We do not accept self-assessment placements
from ARC.
If you have taken a college math class
outside of the Los Rios district, please consult the math
department website for further information about how to proceed. If you have never taken a math class in
college, please take an assessment
exam at FLC.
The
textbooks used in the online math classes are listed below. Online access to MyMathLab (available for
purchase at www.coursecompass.com
or free with the purchase of a new textbook) is the only thing that is required
for the course. A textbook is not required.
However, there is information in the textbook that you are expected to
know that will not be explicitly covered in the online assignments. There is an
e-copy of the textbook embedded in the MyMathLab so you can access a book
electronically without buying one. More details will be given at orientation
