We have figured out how to remove prerequisite block at the course section level, so there is no longer a special enrollment process for corequisite sections if you didn't meet the stated prerequisite of the course. You can simply enroll for the course you wish in CLASS-Web. 然而，你仍然必须这样做 完成 “大学 数学选课 first before you can enroll in a math course. If you are a returning student who has not completed the 数学选课 before, please do so.
The legislation AB 1705 opens access to the lowest-level math course in a "student’s intended certificate or associate degree or a requirement for transfer within the intended major" (Ed Code Section 78213(i)(2)). This provision takes effect in Fall 2024 for all non-阀杆 majors 和 in Fall 2025 for 阀杆 majors. 因为这是物流 unwieldy to enforce prerequisite checks based on a student's academic goal, the first course in a calculus series will be open access. This means that anyone can choose to enroll in MTH 15 Applied Calculus 1 starting Fall 24 和 in MTH 1 Calculus 1 starting Fall 2025, even if they have not completed the stated prerequisite. However, students who wouldn't have otherwise been eligible for MTH 1 or MTH 15 will be restricted to sections of the course with matching sections of required corequisite 支持车间. All sections with workshops will be identified with a "C" at the beginning of the 部分的名字. For example, MTH 1-C01 is matched with the 支持车间 MTH 201W-C01, 和 MTH 15-C71 is matched with MTH 215W-C71. Each pair of courses is linked; a student must enroll in both sections together.
In anticipation of Fall 2025, we will pilot one section of MTH 1 with corequisite support in Fall 2024 that is open access to help us assess the challenges 和 opportunities that open access to MTH 1 affords.
Remember that generally you are expected to spend the number of 课外活动时间 every week that is equal to twice the number of units of the class. 那就是 10 hours a week for MTH 1 和 6 hours a week for MTH 15 outside of class. It is important to you seek resources immediately when you need them. 夏博学院提供 drop-in tutoring in the 阀杆 Center 和 tutoring by appointment through the 学习 Connection. Go to your instructor's office hours (write them down in your calendar!)，以及表格 study groups with classmates.
The corequisite 支持车间s would add two hours of class per week 和 four more 课外活动时间. So the minimum amount of time, both inside 和 outside of class, for MTH 1 is 21 hours per week 和 for MTH 15 is 16 hours per week, if you choose to take calculus without having completing the prerequisite. 这可能不是 enough for some students, especially if they have not yet completed high school Algebra 2 or Integrated 数学 3, but AB 1705 forbids colleges from using any assessment instrument 帮助学生做决定. In fact, the California Community Colleges Chancellor's Office (CCCCO) interprets AB 1705 to mean that a student whose major requires calculus has no choice but to enroll in calculus (perhaps with additional instructional support) 在一所社区大学. The math faculty at “大学, on the other h和, believe students have the right to any course that students believe is appropriate for them. Thus, while “大学's 数学选课 process cannot by law recommend a course below calculus to a student who needs calculus, the math faculty will continue to offer courses below calculus, at both transfer 和 pretransfer levels, to meet the students' needs, even when the CCCCO does not want us to. 这是 数学课程顺序, 和 you can discuss your concerns with your instructor during their office hours.
If you are unhappy with restrictions imposed by AB 1705 和 the CCCCO on what math classes you can choose, you are not alone. 有一个 在线请愿书 你可以签名. You can also contact your California State Senator 和 Assembly Member 通过使用 elected officials finder for their contact information. “大学 runs the risk of losing the money for your enrollment in these restricted courses that the CCCCO doesn't want you to take, should the CCCCO wish to impose sanctions on “大学 for offering these courses. 应用ing pressure to the legislators 和 the CCCCO could help delay these sanctions 甚至改变法律.
