5. Math Learning Center
Enrolled in a Mathematics course and crave secondary instruction or just need a place to study? Then join the hardworking individuals in the Math Learning Center (MLC). With over 75 years of teaching and tutoring experience, students can expect the highest quality of supplemental instruction from the expertly trained staff mentored and supported by the MLC Coordinators. The MLC Coordinators are degreed, full-time faculty with the Mathematics Department. They are sensitive to all forms of instruction along with the software MyMathLab and are familiar with the current needs of the department. The MLC operates on a walk-in basis with no appointment necessary and is open over 50 hours a week, including evenings and Saturdays. The MLC consists of four tiers of learning environments suitable for all student needs.
- The main floor at the Heritage Campus contained in the Coles Building, Room 117, has an open forum to welcome students studying all levels of Mathematics. Equipped with advanced technology, the MLC can provide computer and internet access within the facility. The venue has also been modeled as a contemporary learning space housing ADA tables and active learning furniture. The ADA tables can be adjusted to suit the needs of students with physical disabilities, and the active learning furniture can be arranged to promote individual or collaborative studying practices.
- Across the hall, in Room 116, the MLC lounge has a funky, fashionable layout offering a more relaxing atmosphere in comparison to traditional study halls. Its design breaks all convention due to its distinctive, colorful seating. Style is accompanied by comfort, making the lounge a desirable spot to relax, recharge, and learn. The area can accommodate study groups or can be used solely by an individual.
- Adjacent to the lounge, in Room 118, is the MLC Workshop Room. Throughout the semester, the MLC Coordinators prepare, manage, and direct workshops addressing topics that align with the in-class instruction of the Mathematics Department. When workshops are not being hosted, the room is available as a designated quiet study room for students who are easily distracted.
- We also have a location on the Windward Campus with similar services. Please check the website for our hours and location.
