Use ALEKS to complete the required pre-calculus
module. Remember that if you do not receive a grade of
85% or higher in ALEKS by the first exam, your final grade will be
dropped by one letter grade!
The ALEKS Class Code for all of Dr. Johnson's sections (011, 016, and 017) is UYVLC-TJXJ4. - Departmental 1060 Webpage
- The math department's official 1060 page contains copies of old exams that you may use for practice. Do not assume this semester's exams will be the same as the tests from previous semesters!

- Wolfram Alpha is essentially a stripped-down, online version of Mathematica. For the purposes of our class, you should think of Wolfram Alpha as a free, online graphing calculator.
- Desmos Graphics Calculator
- Another free, online graphing calculator that might be a little more intuitive than Wolfram Alpha.
- Blackboard
- Your grades to assignments, quizzes, and exams will appear on Blackboard.
