COSC Information System Studies - Logic Req. - ArtGurl - 03-16-2015
So I kind of forgot about the Logic requirement for the Information System Studies Concentration...In my Concentration Plan, they approved a class that I was planning on taking through JavaOnline.org. However, I don't think I have the time for taking all the classes for this requirement. (They wanted me to take at least three of these programming courses to fulfill this.)
Is there any other credits or tests that could fulfill this? How about Penn Foster's CSC105 - Introduction to Programming course? I'd hate to have to spend the money at COSC to take their logic course. I really don't have the funds to do so. Please help.
Thanks everyone!

One of my programming classes from community college met the logic requirement. You could ask about the Staighterline course Into to Programming in C++. I don't see it on the equivalency list.

Cool, thanks! Guess I didn't realize StraighterLine was offering any tech classes yet. I'll definitely check it out.

this is probably not the kind of logic you need, but how about the UExcel Introduction to Philosophy exam
Description: The examination measures knowledge and understanding of the material typically taught in a one-semester survey course in philosophy.
The examination content reflects common knowledge drawn from courses with such titles as Introduction to Philosophy or Basic Philosophical Issues.

I took a Philosophy course at my community college, but the credit didn't apply for that area, so I'm assuming this may not either...but it's worth asking about. Thanks for the link. I need to look at the UExcel courses to see what's available. Think it's the only test I haven't checked out yet.

how about this TECEP ?
Thomas Edison State College: All TECEP® Tests
http://www2.tesc.edu/tecep_desc/MAT-105.pdf
MAT-105-TE Applied Liberal Arts Mathematics
This exam tests a broad-based overview of mathematics intended for non-math majors and emphasizes problem-solving modeled on real-life applications.
Topics include:
number systems;
solution of basic algebraic problems;
sets, logic, and probability;
interpretation of statistical data;
the metric system;
and calculations involving geometric objects.
and it looks like Excelsior has something similar in another uexcel
