PRELIMINARIES

COURSE CODE: MATH 1 Number of Units/ 3 units, 3 hrs./wk. (18 weeks, Prerequisite(s):
54 hrs. total)
Hours per Week
Schedule: 1:30-4:30 MT;
7:30-4:30 WTh
9:00-12:00 FS
COURSE TITLE: Mathematics in the Modern World
COURSE DESCRIPTION: This course deals with the nature of mathematics, appreciation of its practical, intellectual, and aesthetic dimensions, and
application of mathematical tools in daily lie. The course begins with an introduction to the nature of mathematics as an
exploration of patterns (in nature and the environment) and as an application of inductive and deductive reasoning. By exploring
these topics, students are encouraged to go beyond the typical understanding of mathematics as merely a set of formulas but as a
source of aesthetics in pattern nature, for example, and a rich language in itself (and of science) governed by logic and reasoning.
The course then proceeds to survey ways in which mathematics provides a tool for understanding and dealing with various
aspects of present-day living, such as managing personal finances, making social choices, appreciating geometric designs,
understanding codes used in data transmission and security, and dividing limited resources fairly. These aspects will provide
Page 2 of 17
 opportunities for knowing, and test the students understanding and capacity.
COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES At the end of the course, the students will be able to:
(CLOs)
A. Knowledge
1. discuss and argue the nature of mathematics, what it is, how it is expressed, represented and used;
2. use different types of reasoning to justify statements and arguments made about mathematics and mathematical concepts;
3. discuss the language and symbols of mathematics;

B. Skills
4. use a variety of statistical tools to process numerical data;
5. analyze codes and coding schemes used for identification, privacy, and security purposes;
6. use mathematics in other areas, such as finance, voting, health and medicine, business, environment, arts and design, and
recreation;

C. Values
7. appreciate the nature and uses of mathematics in everyday life; and
8. affirm honesty and integrity in the application of mathematics to various human endeavors.

COURSE POLICIES: A. Attendance

1. Students must attend the scheduled face-to-face classes and accomplish the requirements. Incurred absences are referred for
dropping (Section 7 of the handbook for students).

2. Students must follow the class schedule and must get to class on time and complete the required activities indicated in the
Course Syllabus. Activities/assignments/quizzes/major examinations should be accomplished within the time frame or schedule
indicated in the Course Syllabus. Submissions through the Learning Management System (LMS) is highly encouraged. Late
submission of requirements (assignments, activities, quizzes), without any valid reason, will be given a credit of 75% of their
obtained score. Failure to comply with the requirements for this subject will incur an NG mark in that particular grading period.
3. Interaction and participation in class discussions is highly encouraged.
4. Proper grooming should be observed at all times on the school campus.
5. Students must practice independence and utmost honesty in accomplishing all their designated activities. Plagiarism is strictly
prohibited. When using data from other source/s, references should be properly cited.
6. Students who do not participate in the scheduled learning activities and who have not submitted at least 30% of the
requirements for the whole duration of the class schedule shall be considered dropped, thus, do not qualify for completion and
requirements submitted during the completion period will not be considered.
7. Students are encouraged to consult with their teacher according to the consultation hours indicated by the teacher in this
Course Syllabus.

B. General Guidelines for Face-to-Face Classes (Health Protocols)

1. Vaccination Status. Each student must be fully vaccinated. Students are required to upload their vaccination status in the
Learning Management System (LMS).
2. Facemask and Ventilation. The use of a facemask is mandatory while inside the institution. Classroom and indoor spaces
should be properly ventilated to ensure a healthy environment.
3. Temperature Checks. Each student should undergo regular temperature checks at the entry points. Students with a body
temperature higher than 37.8°C or experiencing symptoms like sore throat, cough, cold, and headache are asked to go to
the school clinic for further evaluation or referral by the school clinic staff.
4. Disinfection and Hand washing/sanitizing. Students should disinfect their spaces before class begins and after class ends.
Page 4 of 17
 Hand sanitizing stations are placed at various locations throughout the campus.
5. Illness Reporting and Assessment. Students are advised not to attend class if they are not feeling well. In case of illness,
students are instructed to contact the school clinic via the hotline (0910-660-3745) or Facebook page (Salud salud) for
proper assessment.
