There are many resources on campus to assist you in being successful at learning math. The following list includes a variety of opportunities to supplement your classroom experience.

STUDY GROUPS: A GREAT WAY TO LEARN!

  • Studies have shown that students who work in groups perform better in math courses. Arrange with classmates to meet in the cafeteria, tutorial center, library, or the Engineers Club meeting room. Ask your Disability Specialist, counselor, instructor, or Math Department advisor for assistance in forming and using study groups.
     
  • Independent Study courses are available within the Mathematics Department for students who wish to compete on the AMATYC test, a national mathematics test offered three times each academic year.

INSTRUCTOR OFFICE HOURS

Be sure to make time to meet with your instructor early in the semester. Math instructors are available for discussion during scheduled office hours which are listed in your class syllabus and in the schedule of classes. Bring problems and questions with you.

BOOKS, THE INTERNET AND OTHER SUPPORT RESOURCES

  • Math resource books are available in the library and bookstore (for instance: How to Solve Word Problems, by Mildred Johnson, and Mastering Mathematics, a study guide for learning mathematics, by Richard Smith). Talk with your instructor for recommendations.
     
  • For guidance and counseling regarding class placement and other concerns in SRJC Mathematics courses contact your DRD Specialist.
     
  • Many internet sites offer math info, chat rooms and problem & solution dialogue. Contact the Math Lab for more information, or surf on your own!
