Free

with Ruthie Pirkl

Calendar Sep 9, 2024

Register for Free. Please have the correct billing details available to provide during registration.

Be sure to register for both semesters.

Course Length:  Yearlong Course   1st Semester of a 2-semester course

Credit: 1.0

Recommended Grade Level: 9-12

Course Description: In this course, students take a broader look at computational and problem-solving skills while learning the language of algebra. Students extend their understanding of ratio to develop an understanding of proportions and solve problems. Students extend their understanding of numbers and properties of operations to include rational numbers. Signed rational numbers are contextualized and students use rational numbers in constructing expressions and solving equations. Students derive formulas and solve two-dimensional area problems including the area of composite figures. Students also investigate chance processes through experimental and theoretical probability models.

Pre-Calculus/Trigonometry (1st Semester of a 2-semester course)

Free

with Alex Riddle

Calendar Sep 9, 2024

Register for Free. Please have the correct billing details available to provide during registration.

Be sure to register for both semesters.

Course Length:  Yearlong Course   1st Semester of a 2-semester course

Credit: 1.0

Recommended Grade Level: 11-12

Prerequisites: Geometry and Algebra II (or equivalents)    

Course Description: Pre-calculus weaves together concepts of algebra and geometry into a preparatory course for calculus. The course focuses on the mastery of critical skills and exposure to new skills necessary for success in subsequent math courses. Topics include quadratic, exponential, logarithmic, radical, polynomial, and rational functions; matrices; and conic sections in the first semester. The second semester covers an introduction to infinite series, trigonometric ratios, functions, and equations; inverse trigonometric functions; applications of trigonometry, including vectors; polar equations and polar form of complex numbers; arithmetic of complex numbers; and parametric equations.                                                                

 

Algebra Readiness (2nd Semester of a 2-semester course)

Free
Calendar Jan 22, 2025

Register for Free. Please have the correct billing details available to provide during registration.

Be sure to register for both semesters.

Course Length:  Yearlong Course   2nd Semester of a 2-semester course

Credit: 1.0

Recommended Grade Level: 9-12

Prerequisites: Teacher/school counselor recommendation only  

Course Description: Students build and reinforce foundational math skills which they have not achieved mastery. They progress through carefully paced, guided instruction and engaging interactive practice. Formative assessments identify areas of weakness and prescribe lessons to improve performance. Summative assessments track progress and skill development. If needed, students can move on to Pre-Algebra to further develop the computational skills and conceptual understanding needed to undertake high school math courses with confidence.                                                                   

AP ® Calculus AB (2nd Semester of a 2-semester course)

Free
Calendar Jan 22, 2025

Register for Free. Please have the correct billing details available to provide during registration.

Be sure to register for both semesters.

Course Length:  Yearlong Course   2nd Semester of a 2-semester course

Recommended Grade Level: 11-12

Prerequisites: Successfully completed courses in which you studied algebra, geometry, trigonometry, analytic geometry, and elementary functions.

Course Description: This course is the equivalent of an introductory college-level calculus course. Calculus helps scientists, engineers, and financial analysts understand the complex relationships behind real-world phenomena. Students learn to evaluate the soundness of proposed solutions and apply mathematical reasoning to real-world models. Students also learn to understand change geometrically and visually (by studying graphs of curves), analytically (by studying and working with mathematical formulas), numerically (by seeing patterns in sets of numbers), and verbally. Students prepare for the AP exam and further studies in science, engineering, and mathematics.

 

AP ® Statistics (2nd Semester of a 2-semester course)

Free
Calendar Jan 22, 2025

Register for Free. Please have the correct billing details available to provide during registration.

Be sure to register for both semesters.

Course Length:  Yearlong Course   1st Semester of a 2-semester course

Credit: 1.0

Recommended Grade Level: 11-12

Prerequisites: Success in Algebra II (or equivalent) and teacher/school counselor recommendation  

Course Description: AP Statistics gives students hands-on experience collecting, analyzing, graphing, and interpreting real-world data. They will learn to effectively design and analyze research studies by reviewing and evaluating real research examples taken from daily life. The next time they hear the results of a poll or study, they will know whether the results are valid. As the art of drawing conclusions from imperfect data and the science of real-world uncertainties, statistics plays an important role in many fields. The equivalent of an introductory college-level course, AP Statistics prepares students for the AP exam and for further study in science, sociology, medicine, engineering, political science, geography, and business.

Consumer Math 2

Free
Calendar Jan 22, 2025

Register for Free. Please have the correct billing details available to provide during registration.

Course Length:  Yearlong Course   2nd Semester of a 2-semester course

Credit: .5

Recommended Grade Level: 11-12

Prerequisites: None

Course Description: In Consumer Math, students study and review arithmetic skills they can apply in their personal lives and in their future careers. In Consumer Math 2, students learn about personal finances, checking and savings accounts, loans and buying on credit, automobile expenses, and housing expenses. Narrated slideshows help illustrate some of the more difficult content. Throughout the course, students participate in online discussions with each other and their teacher.

 

Integrated Math 1 (2nd Semester of a 2-semester course)

Free
Calendar Jan 22, 2025

Register for Free. Please have the correct billing details available to provide during registration.

Be sure to register for both semesters.

Course Length: 1 Year 2nd Semester of 2-Semester Course

Credit: 1.0

Recommended Grade Level: 9-12

Course Description: This first-year high school integrated math course focuses on linear and simple exponential models. The course contrasts linear behavior with exponential behavior and uses both linear and simple exponential equations as models. Students learn about and work extensively with functions, analyzing function properties and behavior, creating and transforming functions, and applying functions to various continuous and discrete situations.      

Integrated Math 2 (2nd Semester of a 2-semester course)
