2. Course Overview & Requirements MATH 062, 070, 072, 097

3. Instructor Laura Moore-Mueller(please call me “Laura”) Email: lmoore-mueller@greenriver.edu Office: HSA 40 Office Hour: 9-9:50 AM Phone: 253-833-9111 x 4444

4. Attendance Roster • This first week only, please sign the appropriate attendance roster near the door. • If you are on a wait list, please keep coming each day and sign the roster. I’ll be able to tell you on the 3rd day if you can get in.

5. Class Format • Your primary “instructor” is the Hawkes computer courseware. • This is NOT a distance education class but is considered a “flex” course. • All assignments and tests are completed on the computer. • There are no lectures, but I am here to assist if you have questions.

6. Advantages • While there are deadlines for assignments and tests, students find this format a bit more flexible. • All work except TESTS can be done at home or on other campus computers. • It is a good way to review materials previously learned.

7. Disadvantages • Many students find the structure of lecture environment more helpful. • While there is an instructor available to help, the students are mostly responsible for learning the material via the computer courseware. There are no scheduled lectures.

8. Criteria for Success • You like math, or at least don’t hate it! • You like learning math on your own. • The material you are learning is, for the most part, a review of material you have had in the past but have forgotten. • You are VERY self-motivated.

9. Proper Placement • If you feel you are in the wrong course because the material is too easy or too hard, please see me as soon as possible. • If you feel that a lecture course would be better for you, check immediately to see if any sections are open and then make the change. (Unfortunately, by the time the quarter starts, many courses are already full.) • For more information about math placement and Sample Entrance Exams please visit:http://www.instruction.greenriver.edu/DIV-Math/Advising/default.htm

10. Attendance Requirement • If you are new to Hawkes, attendance the first 3 days is required. Attendance the first full week is often helpful. • After the first week, the only required attendance is for TESTS. They must be taken in class during your scheduled class hour. See the calendar. • Attendance is NOT part of your grade.
