General Education Alignment

Analytical Reasoning Requirement

Abstract Reasoning

From the [Catalog Description] Courses qualifying for credit in Abstract Reasoning typically share these characteristics:

They focus substantially on properties of classes of abstract models and operations that apply to them.
- Analysis of this unit's support or not for this item.
They provide experience in generalizing from specific instances to appropriate classes of abstract models.
- Analysis of this unit's support or not for this item.
They provide experience in solving concrete problems by a process of abstraction and manipulation at the abstract level. Typically this experience is provided by word problems which require students to formalize real-world problems in abstract terms, to solve them with techniques that apply at that abstract level, and to convert the solutions back into concrete results.
- Analysis of this unit's support or not for this item.

Quantitative Reasoning

From the [Catalog Description] General Education courses in Quantitative Reasoning foster students' abilities to generate, interpret and evaluate quantitative information. In particular, Quantitative Reasoning courses help students develop abilities in such areas as:

Using and interpreting formulas, graphs and tables.
- Analysis of this unit's support or not for this item.
Representing mathematical ideas symbolically, graphically, numerically and verbally.
- Analysis of this unit's support or not for this item.
Using mathematical and statistical ideas to solve problems in a variety of contexts.
- Analysis of this unit's support or not for this item.
Using simple models such as linear dependence, exponential growth or decay, or normal distribution.
- Analysis of this unit's support or not for this item.
Understanding basic statistical ideas such as averages, variability and probability.
- Analysis of this unit's support or not for this item.
Making estimates and checking the reasonableness of answers.
- Analysis of this unit's support or not for this item.
Recognizing the limitations of mathematical and statistical methods.
- Analysis of this unit's support or not for this item.

Scientific Inquiry Requirement

From the [Catalog Description] Scientific inquiry:

Develops students' understanding of the natural world.
- Analysis of this unit's support or not for this item.
Strengthens students' knowledge of the scientific way of knowing — the use of systematic observation and experimentation to develop theories and test hypotheses.
- Analysis of this unit's support or not for this item.
Emphasizes and provides first-hand experience with both theoretical analysis and the collection of empirical data.
- Analysis of this unit's support or not for this item.
