challenges of globalization.
Mission: To train and develop a new breed of highly competitive, innovative, resourceful and values-oriented graduates through quality instruction, relevant
munity-based extension, and sustainable production.
CAST Goal: The College of Arts, Sciences, and Technology aims to provide excellent education to students equipped with the necessary knowledge and skills in
their specialized profession
Course Description: This is a course in General Mathematics for first year students which deals with the Fundamental Principles of College Algebra.
Topics include linear equations, quadratic equations and systems of linear equations in two or three variables. A review on the basic concepts,
operation of polynomials, radicals and fractions is also included.
General Objectives: This is an integrative course It is meant to synthesize and reinforce the concepts, processes and skills learned in secondary school. The course is
guided by the following principles:
the need to emphasize on conceptual understanding more than procedural understanding but not sacrificing fundamental quantitative skills:
the need to use context that capture real- world problems and maximize the use of modeling and visualizing techniques and using appropriate
technology to solve these problems;
the needs to engage learners in reflective thinking and provide them opportunities to think outside the box
This course further intends to develop and strengthen the following general skills problem formulating and solving, justifying and reasoning,
evaluating and extending, and analytical skills.
