ELEMENTARY EDUCATION selkirk.ca/program/elementary-education societies of the native peoples to the present. Relations between Europeans and First Nations, the development of the European resource and settlement frontiers, and the eventual transformation of British Columbia’s society and economy as a result of industrialization, immigration, and urbanization are examined within a broader Canadian and North American context. Emphasis is placed on fostering student interest in the history of British Columbia by examining the historical experiences of a diversity of peoples. Pre-requisites: ENGL 12 with a grade of "C" or better or written permission of the instructor and School Chair. NOTE: Students in West Kootenay and British Columbia history courses have access to the "MINTO ROOM" archives. This collection of books, records, private papers, photos and maps aid in research, particularly of the Kootenay region. HIST 210 - A HISTORY OF THE FIRST NATIONS OF CANADA The course examines the history of the First Nations of Canada from the pre-contact period to the present. The changes and continuities within the societies and economies of the First Nations as a result of European contact, trade, warfare, and settlement are examined within a broader hemispheric context. The course gives particular emphasis to the historical roots of contemporary First nations’ issues in Canada and the contributions that aboriginal people have made to the development of Canada and to their own distinct societies. Pre-requisites: ENGL 12 or equivalent with a grade of "C" or better or written permission of the instructor and School Chair. MATH 100 - CALCULUS I A course designed to provide students with the background in calculus needed for further studies. This course includes: a review of functions and graphs; limits; the derivative of algebraic, trigonometric, exponential and logarithmic functions; applications of the derivative including related rates, maxima, minima, velocity and acceleration; the definite integral; an introduction to elementary differential equations; and, applications of integration including velocity, acceleration, areas, and growth and decay problems. Pre-requisites: Pre-calculus 12, Principles of MATH 12 or equivalent with a grade of "C+" or better or written permission of the Instructor and Schoo! Chair. For University Arts & Sciences course descriptions: see page 260 74. Selkirk College Academic Calendar 2016-17 MATH 101 - CALCULUS II This course is a sequel to MATH 100 for those students who wish to major in mathematics, sciences or applied sciences. The course includes: antidifferentiation and integration; the definite integral; areas and volumes; transcendental functions; techniques of integration; parametric equations; polar coordinates; indeterminate forms, improper integrals and Taylor's formula; and infinite series. Pre-requisites: MATH 100 or equivalent with a grade of "C" or better or written permission of the instructor and School Chair. MATH 180 —- MATHEMATICS FOR TEACHERS Math 180: Mathematics for Teachers, introduces future elementary school teachers and others to the mathematical content and principles of British Columbia elementary school curriculum. In the process of taking a theoretical and historical, in-depth look at the curriculum, students will be encouraged to develop comfort and confidence with mathematics as well as the ability to communicate mathematically and solve mathematical problems. Pre-requisites: Pre-calculus 11, Foundations 11 or equivalent with a grade of "C" or better, or written permission of the Instructor and Schoo! Chair. MATH 181 - PROBLEM SOLVING IN FOUNDATIONAL MATHEMATICS Designed to follow MATH 180, Math 181: Problem Solving in Foundational Mathematics introduces students to more in depth problem solving on a smaller number of topics including probability, combinatorics and statistics, modular arithmetic, geometry, sequences and series, fractals, coding and other topics of interest. Students will solve problems in class in smaller groups and out of class individually. Students will develop problem solving ability as well as oral and written presentation skills. While intended for all non-science majors, this course is designed to be especially useful for students who want to prepare to teach math at the elementary school level. Pre-requisites: Pre-calculus 11, Foundations 11 or Math 11 with a grade of "B" or better; Pre-calculus 12, Foundations 12 or MATH 72 with a grade of "C" or better; MATH 780 with a grade of "C" or better; or written permission of the Instructor and Schoo!
