you become familiar with the function concept.
You will learn ....(See
Module Learning Objectives
for more details.)
This module includes a set of Study
Notes, an on-line Lab
to help reinforce the concepts, and a collection of links to other
web-based Resources
on the general topic of Functions.
It is provided as an aid to independent non-credit study by students
who feel a need to improve their understanding of these topics prior to
either taking the Math Diagnostic Test, or entering a Calculus course.
There is no assessment or credit available in this context. In order to
obtain credit it is necessary to enrol in a course such as Langara's
Math 1170. For distance learners, the Open Learning Agency's Math 100
covers similar material.
In a one semester precalculus course the material in this module
takes about two
weeks to complete.
