Why is a student sometimes required to take two LUCHA™ courses in order to receive credit for the equivalent of one course?
Courses in Mexico are structured differently, and equivalency is based on the alignment to the TEKS. For example, Matemáticas I & II are separate courses; however, our curriculum alignment review revealed that the content of both courses combined is equivalent to our Texas Algebra I course. This same pattern applies to other courses from Mexico as well.
