Mathematics Lab Mission

The Mathematics Lab seeks to successfully reinforce mathematics concepts taught in Athens State University (ASU) mathematics classes so that students’ confidences in their mathematics abilities are realized and their competency elevated.  The knowledgeable, professional and courteous employees of the ASU Mathematics Lab provide a supportive environment that is designed to meet the mathematics learning needs of all students enrolled in ASU mathematics courses.  The Mathematics Lab employees facilitate this by (1) offering individual or small-group tutorials, (2) providing access to technology, such as computers with mathematics software and Internet access, DVD’s or other audio-video systems of supplemental instruction, and (3) providing access to reference materials.  The Mathematics Lab operates during the day and some evenings to accommodate the diverse population of the university. 

Mathematics Lab Impact on Distance Learning Students

The employees of the Mathematics Lab are committed to supplementing the mathematics program of instruction for all students enrolled in mathematics classes at Athens State University (ASU) and this includes students enrolled in the specific distance learning mathematics courses offered each year by ASU.  Any student enrolled in a distance learning mathematics class may visit the Mathematics Lab during regularly scheduled day or evening hours to receive personal tutoring, watch or check out mathematics VHS or DVD's or take advantage of available printed resources.  In addition to visiting the campus for assistance, students enrolled in distance learning mathematics classes are encouraged to contact the Mathematics Lab during posted hours of operation to receive verbal assistance via the telephone.  These hours of operation are distributed via e-mail to all faculty, staff and students at the beginning of each academic term.
