This resource includes PowerPoint, workbook pages, and supplemental videos associated to OpenStax College Algebra, Section 5.5 Zeros of Polynomial Functions.  All materials are ADA accessible.  Funded by THECB OER Development and Implementation Grant (2021)

This resource includes online homework and quizzes, lecture notes for instructors (some with guided note packets or student versions), sample syllabi, sample schedules, and sample exams used in a corequisite College Algebra course, where students are enrolled in both Intermediate and College Algebra simultaneously. All of the resources can be used for a stand alone College Algebra course, with minor editing.  

This collection of guided notes was created through a Round Fifteen Mini-Grant for Ancillary Materials Creation and Revision. Major topics include:

Review Topics
Equations and Inequalities
Functions and Graphs
Other Functions and Inequalities
Exponentials and Logarithms

Mathematics, as we all know, is the language of science, and fluency in algebraic skills has always been necessary for anyone aspiring to disciplines based on calculus. But in the information age, increasingly sophisticated mathematical methods are used in all fields of knowledge, from archaeology to zoology. Consequently, there is a new focus on the courses before calculus. The availability of calculators and computers allows students to tackle complex problems involving real data, but requires more attention to analysis and interpretation of results. All students, not just those headed for science and engineering, should develop a mathematical viewpoint, including critical thinking, problem-solving strategies, and estimation, in addition to computational skills. Modeling, Functions and Graphs employs a variety of applications to motivate mathematical thinking.

Open Resources for Community College Algebra (ORCCA) is an open-source, openly-licensed textbook package (eBook, print, and online homework) for basic and intermediate algebra. At Portland Community College, Part 1 is used in MTH 60, Part 2 is used in MTH 65, and Part 3 is used in MTH 95.

This spreadsheet collects the learning objectives from each section of the OpenStax College Algebra book. This is a derivative work and is licensed under CC BY 4.0.

These lecture guides will aid students as they progress through the first semester of College Algebra. They highlight key concepts, allow for note-taking and problem examples to be recorded, and serve to improve student engagement with the material during instruction.

The attached file is a .bok TestGen file which contains the first two chapters of the OpenStax College Algebra Textbook. Using the TestGen software, one can create quizzes, tests and homework assignments compatible with Canvas, Blackboard, Moodle and D2L.
