COURSE DESCRIPTION: This course deals with nature of mathematics,
appreciation of its practical, intellectual, and aesthetic dimensions, and
application of mathematical tools in daily life. The course begins with an
introduction to the nature of mathematics as an exploration of patterns (in
nature and the environment) and as an application of inductive and deductive
reasoning. By exploring these topics, students are encouraged to go beyond the
typical understanding of mathematics as merely a set of formulas but as a source
of aesthetics in patterns of nature, for example, and a rich language in itself (and
of science) governed by logic and reasoning. The course then proceeds to survey
ways in which mathematics provides a tool for understanding and dealing with
various aspects of present-day living, such as managing personal finances,
making social choices, appreciating geometric designs, understanding codes
used in data transmission and security, and dividing limited resources fairly.
These aspects will provide opportunities for actually doing mathematics in a
broad range of exercises that bring out the various dimensions of mathematics
as a way of knowing, and test the students’ understanding and capacity.

COURSE POLICIES
1. Students is expected to participate to the best of his/her abilities in
whatever activity is scheduled per module in accordance to his/her
preferred but approved mode of learning such as any or combination of
the following:
a) Online using the institution’s learning management system “BPC
eLearning”
b) Modular (print out or in flash disk for pick up/drop box).
2. The rule on failing mark for 20% unexcused absences cannot be enforced
due to allowed flexible schedule during this time of pandemic instead a
student has to be mindful of the required pre-scheduled
submission/compliance of the requirements.
3. Assessment of learning shall be done for every module; however, there
shall be two summative tests that a student needs to undergo before the
semester ends. For a student who opted to have summative exam online,
is has to be real time and there should be somebody who would video
him/her to prove that he/she is really the one answering the test.
However, if there is no more community quarantine, the summative exam
shall be done by batch and in school.
4. Mid-Term and Final Exams shall be given only to students who have
completely or partially settled their accounts for the specified period.
5. Student will be held responsible for all assignments and requirements
missed for the entire content on the course regardless of the mode of
learning he/she has chosen.
6. Only students officially enrolled in the course will be allowed to attend the
class.
7. The professor is not obliged to give a special or late test to any student who
fails to take an examination at the scheduled time, except upon

grade within one year; otherwise, a grade of 5.0 will be given automatically
by the registrar.

x = 100 + 99 + 98 + 97 + … + 1
2x = 101 + 101 + 101 + 101 + … + 101
2x = 101 (100)
