I wonder if those goals of increasing the amount of general knowledge someone knows is in alignment with the goals of attending community it's college?
I'd imagine for a lot of students in community college they care more about getting a job than they do about learning for learnings sake.
Very fair counter point. I would think that the trade school elements of CC would down the road require some knowledge of algebra though right? Be it nursing, plumbing or carpentry
The course in question contains topics like imaginary numbers, sequences/series, and conic sections along with the more practical topics like basic inequalities, graphs of functions, and simple systems of equations. The alternative pathways program seems to swap out these topics for basic topics in probability, statistics, and the like.
