Not much has been written about technical colleges, especially
teaching mathematics at one. Much had been written about community
college mathematics. This book addresses this disparity.
Mathematics is a beautiful subject worthy to be taught at the
technical college level. The author sheds light on technical
colleges and their importance in the higher education system.
Technical colleges area more affordable for students and provide
many career opportunities. These careers are becoming or have
become as lucrative as careers requiring a four-year-degree. The
interest in technical college education is likely to continue to
grow. Mathematics, like all other classes, is a subject that needs
time, energy, and dedication to learn. For an instructor, it takes
many years of hard work and dedication just to be able to teach the
subject. Students should not be expected to learn the mathematics
overnight. As instructors, we need to be open, honest, and put
forth our very best to our students so that they can see that they
are able to succeed in whatever is placed in front of them. This
book hopes to encourage such an effort. A notable percentage of
students who are receiving associate degrees will go through at
least one of more mathematics, courses. These students should not
be forgotten about-their needs are similar to any student who is
required to take a mathematics course to earn a degree. This book
offers insight into teaching mathematics at a technical college. It
is also a source for students to turn toward when they are feeling
dread in taking a mathematics course. Mathematics instructors want
to help students succeed. If they put forth their best effort, and
us ours, we can all work as one team to get the student through the
course and onto chasing their dreams. Though this book focuses on
teaching mathematics, some chapters expand to focus on teaching in
general. The overall hope is the reader, will be inspired by the
great work that is happening at technical colleges all around the
country. Technical college can be, should be, and is the backbone
of the American working class.
