Math Lab

Math Lab Hours

Math Lab is a free tutoring service provided by the MCIS department for JSU students in Intermediate Algebra (MS100) and College Algebra (MS112). All of the tutors are in the mathematics department or mathematics graduate students.

It is not necessary for your teacher to be in the lab for you to use it.


Some useful programs

Grade Calculator

If you enter your test grades, homework grade, final grade and number of test to replace Grade Calculator will calculate for class grade.

Final Calculator

Enter you three test scores, homework grade, the number of tests to replace and the grade you want in the class and the Final Calculator will tell you what you need to make on the final to make that grade.

Polynomial Factorer

Polynomial Factorer will factor a polynomial with integer coefficients over the integers. But beware, it uses the Schubert-Kronecker factorization algorithm. So the running time grows exponentially with the degree of the polynomial and the size of the coefficients.
