This OER course using a new textbook is based a section of MAT103 Pre-Calculus. It is a preparatory course for Calculus. It builds upon the intermediate level of Algebra and makes intensive use of technology to conceptualize functions and methods of function manipulation with emphasis on quantitative change. All course content written by Fahmil Shah. Added to OER Commons by Victoria Vidal.

A preparation for MAT 201 and the physical sciences. Students study principles, properties, and

applications of functions and their graphs. They revisit functions introduced in MAT 107 and expand

their knowledge of them. The course focuses heavily on circular trigonometric functions and introduces

conic sections. Laboratory activities place particular emphasis on the use of functions to model real

problems. Computers and/or graphing calculators are used to enhance the study of mathematics.

Prerequisites: A grade of C- or better in MAT 107 or a score of 71 or higher on the College Level Math

placement test; ENG 090 and ENG 094 (COL 090), or satisfactory placement test scores.

Included is a .docx file of a booklet with notes, practice tests and answers for a Precalculus course.  This may be used as a teacher’s guide to classroom presentation or a student’s resource for definitions and formulas and some practice problems.CC x BY Jean-Marie Magnier 

The goals of this course are to give students a greater knowledge and understanding of mathematics and to help students develop new skills and concepts and enhance their problem-solving ability, all of which are necessary for the study of a science and engineering oriented calculus. MAT 196 is also designed to help students further develop and extend their critical thinking skills in a contextualized environment. You will achieve this goal by applying strategies presented by the instructor which are designed to help you interpret, analyze, evaluate, infer, and synthesize concepts studied in preparation for Calculus.

This resource is a series of four videos that provide scaffolding for students who are learning to solve rational equations.  Subtitles are included on the videos and for each video there is an accompanying worksheet for students to practice.  Solutions are provided for each worksheet.

The authors of this book adapted homework problems to improve accessibility and promote diversity, equity, and inclusion in the introductory statistics course they teach at Fitchburg State University. The problems are showcased in this book, but we have also incorporated them into our existing problem sets on an open-source online homework platform called WeBWorK. The problems can be used as a companion to the OpenStax textbook "Introductory Statistics" by Barbara Illowsky and Susan Dean or any other textbook for a semester-long introductory statistics course. For a fuller experience for you and your students, we encourage you to contact us for help accessing the problem sets on WeBWorK. On that platform, students will engage more fully with the questions, and a slightly different version of the same problem will be generated for each student.

A general statistics course, which includes understanding data, measures of central tendency, measures of variation, binomial distributions, normal distributions, correlation and regression, probability and sampling distributions, Central Limit Theorem, confidence intervals, estimates of population parameters and hypothesis testing. Interpretation and data analysis are emphasized.

This Open Educational Resource (OER) carries a significant responsibility by presenting statistics through an equity lens. The metaphor of a lens is used intentionally–as the glasses one wears can have a profound effect on what one sees. The book encourages further inspection of the ways in which data is collected, interpreted, and analyzed on a variety of social justice issues, such as health disparities, hunger and food insecurity, homelessness, behavioral health (mental health and substance use), and incarceration of males of color. It also attempts to reveal how the misuse of data can reinforce inequities, for example, by stigmatizing people and labeling neighborhoods as high poverty, violent, and having poor educational opportunities. Whether an intended or unintended consequence, irresponsible data use can contribute to racist impressions of people and communities.

An examination of a variety of mathematical concepts which focus on solving problems, interpreting data, and applications. This course includes topics such as tables, graphs, basic statistics, geometric measures, and consumer mathematics. This course fulfills the BCC mathematics requirement ONLY for the Criminal Justice, Fire Science, and Human Services programs.

The lesson materials include Trigonometric Problems and Equations including double angle formulas, fundamental trigonometric identities, and sum and difference formulas.

In this publication we describe the Project completed as part of a standard Statistics course at Middlesex Community College, Beford-Lowell, MA.

This was an assignment in a junior-level Differential Equations class at Fitchburg State University.  It was also part of an Open Pedagogy group in which all participants produced materials for a class in an Open Pedagogy sense.  The goal of the group was twofold: 1) to learn what open pedagogy is, both in the general sense as well as in one's particular academic field and 2) to develop an Open Pedagogy assignment in a current or future class.
