AHSE 066 HS21 Integrated Math II

5 credits
HS21 Integrated Math II builds upon the basic computational math skills developed in HS21 Integrated Math I using a variety of methods.  Students compute with fractions, decimals, and percents, as well as ratios and proportions. Emphasis is placed on problem solving strategies and order of operations for multi-step equations. Skill development is demonstrated through contextualized word problems.

Prerequisites: Enrollment in basic skills and placement in HS21+ level classes as assessed by the CASAS.
Student Outcomes/Competencies:
Upon the successful completion of this course students will be able to:

  • Apply the standard order of operations to high school level math problems
  • Compute with fractions, decimals, and percents
  • Solve problems using ratio and proportions
  • Use appropriate measurement techniques to solve contextualized math problems
  • Decode math story problems
  • Apply mathematical skills in number sense, measurement, data analysis, probability and algebra to high school level word problems
  • Draw logical inferences from graphs and charts in math story problems
  • Choose appropriate problem-solving strategies for a variety of multi-step math problems
