Course Description:   Integrated Mathematics III, a third-year high school math course, introduces students to polynomials, including the factoring of polynomials, before moving onto quadratics equations and quadratic functions. The course also covers probability, including conditional probability. There are many geometry topics in the course, including transversals, similarity, volume, and circles. Students solve problems using right triangle trigonometry and special right triangles, and use the tools of analytic geometry to describe circles and parabolas in the coordinate plane.


                                                                                                                                    

 

Math Reasoning-Dual Credit (1st Semester of a 2-semester course)

Free

with Traci Terrell

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: Passing with a “C” or better in Geometry or Integrated Math 2 (and/or ACT of 17 or better)

Course Description: All college students, regardless of their college major, need to be able to make reasonable decisions about fiscal, environmental, and health issues that require quantitative reasoning skills. An activity-based approach is used to explore numerical relationships, graphs, proportional relationships, algebraic reasoning, and problem solving using linear, exponential and other mathematical models. Students will develop conceptual and procedural tools that support the use of key mathematical concepts in a variety of contexts. This course may be used as the first of a two part sequence that ends with Quantitative Reasoning as the capstone general education math requirement.

Physics (1st Semester of a 2-semester course)

Free

with Craig Lebakken

Calendar Sep 9, 2024

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

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

Credit 1.0

Recommended Grade Level: 10-12

Prerequisites: None

Course Description: This course provides a comprehensive survey of all key areas: physical systems, measurement, kinematics, dynamics, momentum, energy, thermodynamics, waves, electricity, magnetism, and more. The course uses a storyline structure that connects to real-world phenomena, and answers questions like: How can we design more reliable systems to meet our communities’ energy needs?; How do forces in Earth’s interior determine what will happen to the surface we see?; What can we do to make driving safer for everyone?; How have collisions with objects from space changed Earth in the past, and how could they affect our future?; and How do we use radiation in our lives, and is it safe for humans?

 

 

Pre-Algebra (1st Semester of a 2-semester course)

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.
