California State Univ., Los Angeles.; Academic Senate for California Community Colleges, Sacramento.; California Univ., Los Angeles.
This guide, for junior and senior high school teachers, school board members, community groups, counselors, and administrators, describes the fundamental competencies in English and mathematics expected of a student who begins any baccalaureate degree program. In the Statment on Competencies, fundamental reading, writing and mathematics skills are outlined. The mathematics section deals specifically with pre-algebra, algebra I, geometry, algebra II, trigonometry, and analytic geometry and mathematical analysis. Appendix 1 describes and illustrates the English placement examinations used in the three segments of California public higher education. Appendix 2 reprints portions of the College Board's recommended academic competencies in speaking and listening, reasoning, and studying. Appendix 3 reprints the "Recommendations of the Board of Governors of the Mathematical Association of America and the Board of Directors of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics." Appendix 4 provides sample problems in mathematics to illustrate the concepts and skills expected of students who have completed specific high school mathematics courses. (JAC)
