-exposed to the topics. This basic recollection, however,illuminated the lack of mathematical readiness to excel at the Precalculus level where basics arenot addressed and the content moves quickly to conceptual understanding with the need to applyone’s mathematical understanding.At Methodist University it was determined we required a solution that would 1) address theimpact of beginning the mathematics sequence in College Algebra on the Engineering Programand 2) address the need for a brief review of the basic mathematical concepts taught in CollegeAlgebra to be included in the beginning of more advanced courses. In researching possiblesolutions, we had to keep in mind the size, capabilities, and restrictions of our small institution.The
