Learning Goals and Assessment Plans

Learning GoalAssessment
Solve equations and manipulate expressions with
trigonometric, inverse trigonometric, polynomial
and rational functions.
When the class is being assessed, the final exams
will include embedded questions to assess student
performance on these topic-specific learning
goals. Instructors will tally their students'
scores on these questions, and will forward this
data to the chair of the department pre-major
