MATH 10C
Credits: 5
Successful completion of Math 9 (65% recommended)
A combined course is the starting point for the “-1” course sequence and the “-2” sequence. Each topic area within the Math 10C course requires that students develop a conceptual knowledge base and skill set that will be useful, whether they choose the precalculus 20-1, 30-1 stream or the 20-2, 30-2 stream. The topics covered within a course sequence are meant to build upon previous knowledge and to progress from simple to more complex conceptual understandings.

Competencies in MATH 15
Credits: 5
Successful completion of Math 9 (50% -65% +)
This course is focused on improving student mastery of mathematical skills, concepts and
ideas. Students will build numeracy through thinking critically, identifying and solving complex problems, and demonstrating good communication skills. Learners will engage in collaborative tasks and formative assessments designed to develop student agency and independence while acquiring mathematical knowledge. Students would take Math10-3 or Math 10-4 in second semester.

Rational and Philosophy
Knowledge and Employability mathematics courses focus on developing essential mathematics knowledge, skills and attitudes needed for everyday living at home, in the workplace and in the community. This sequence is designed for students whose needs, interests and abilities focus on basic mathematical understanding. Knowledge and Employability mathematics
courses emphasize career/life skills, teamwork, communication skills and thinking processes.
Information and Communication Technology (ICT) outcomes and the use of calculators, computers and other technologies are integrated into the courses to help provide quick and accurate computation and manipulation and to enhance conceptual understanding.
