MAC³ and Reading

Math and Reading - Creating Synergy
This course will cover interesting themes such as health and wellness, global and environmental awareness, minority issues, civic duties, and budgeting.

Preparing EAP (ESL) Students for College Success by Integrating Math Concepts in the EAP Curriculum
This project is set up to help ESL students succeed in their college career by building connections between math and language instruction. Instructors can help “bridge gaps in literacy students’ math knowledge, expand their communicative competence in English, and ultimately prepare them for success in future math coursework.

Making Connections
This course is a learning community that includes a 10-credit coordinated studies class that combines English 81 and Reading 94 with a link to Math 62. Not all students in the coordinated studies class (capped at 48) will be in the math class (capped at 32), but we are hoping that all of the math students will be in the coordinated studies course.

Beginnings: A Learning Community
Beginnings is a learning community that integrates reading, English, and math curriculum at the preparatory level. Our goal is to enhance student achievement and learning to prepare students for college level courses, career and technical programs, and the workplace.

Alpha: Linking Basic Algebra, Basic Reading, and Basic Writing:
This project develops the curriculum materials for a learning community that links the courses Basic Algebra I, Basic Reading, and Basic Writing. The theme for the learning community is real world applications and the name "Alpha" is used to advertise and register students. One of the main objectives is to help students develop projects that apply skills and concepts from all three of our courses to different global issues.
