Week 5 Quantitative Reasoning Use Sets and Venn Diagrams to solve problems. Analyze data using Venn Diagrams. Rearrange formulas to isolate a specific variable. Solve for a variable in a given equation. Analyze arguments to determine validity. Solve real-world scenarios using quantitative reasoning skills. Weekly Overview This week students visualize, analyze, and evaluate situations and arguments. Sets and Venn diagrams help classify groups. Example: Are all fish classified as salmon? How about the other way around? This week also reinforces the skills of rearranging and solving for a variable. These skills comes in handy when working with formulas in situations that students encounter in life. Students should be able to think critically about arguments and situations after completing this week’s assignments. Students also apply these critical thinking skills when finalizing their Signature Assignment. Assignment: MyMathLab® Plan for Week 5 Checkpoint Purpose: This assignment allows students to get the necessary practice to fully comprehend the weekly learning objectives through guided instructions, videos, and links to the textbook. This assignment also allows students to show mastery in the mathematical skills learned throughout the week. Assignment: MyMathLab® Week 5 Checkpoint Purpose: Students demonstrate what they have learned this week in a formative assessment. Do not grade this assignment until the week has ended. Students have unlimited attempts on the weekly checkpoints. Assignment: Signature Assignment Presentation Purpose: In this assignment, students use skills they have learned throughout all five weeks of the course. Students apply what they have learned to solve a real-world problem that they could encounter in their future careers. Students analyze their data, draw conclusions, and present what they have learned.
