SSKL 099 - Self-paced Basic Skills Review: CAI
3 hrs (Sem I, II)
This course is designed for students, particularly off-campus students, who need assistance with the basic skills necessary for success in academic programs and in the workplace. A user-friendly interactive computer- delivered instructional system, customized to the students’ needs, will be used to improve the students’ academic skills. The self-paced course has been developed specifically for students who have not learned from more traditional instructional approaches or adults who have been out of school for a number of years. The individualized instructional program allows the students to monitor their progress as they strengthen their skills. Students can use any or all of the interactive computer-delivered courseware in reading, writing, and mathematics. Placement into and completion of this course will be determined by Accuplacer, the VU placement test. Other standardized tests (SAT, ACT, ASSET) which correlate with Accuplacer may be submitted. Students may repeat this course if needed as they improve their basic skills proficiency to an appropriate level to enroll in college level classes. The class uses computer-based learning of skills and strategies in conjunction with learning centers and individual students. An open entry fee will be charged per user per calendar year off-campus at IPSE Living Centers and on campus. A CD-ROM version is also available for individual off-campus students at a fee per user per calendar year. Off-campus students who do not complete the course within one calendar year of the enrollment date must re-enroll. On-campus students who do not complete the course within one semester of the enrollment date must reenroll. 3 class hours.
