  • AP Calculus BC
    Mathematics Fairfield Public Schools AP Calculus BC AP Calculus BC BOE Approved 04/08/2014 1 AP CALCULUS BC Critical Areas of Focus Advanced Placement Calculus BC consists of a full year of college calculus. This course is intended for students who have demonstrated exceptional ability and achievement in mathematics, and have successfully completed an accelerated program. To be successful, students must be motivated learners who have mathematical intuition, a solid background in the topics studied in previous courses and the persistence to grapple with complex problems. Students in the course are expected to take the Advanced Placement exam in May, at a fee, for credit and/or placement consideration by those colleges which accept AP credit. The critical areas of focus for this course will be in three areas: (a) functions, graphs and limits, (b) differential calculus (the derivative and its applications), and (c) integral calculus (anti-derivatives and their applications). 1) Students will build upon their understanding of functions from prior mathematics courses to determine continuity and the existence of limits of a function both graphically and by the formal definitions of continuity and limits. They will use the understanding of limits and continuity to analyze the behavior of functions as they approach a discontinuity or as the function approaches ± . 2) Students will analyze the formal definition of a derivate and the conditions upon which a derivatve exists. They will interpret the derivative as the slope of a tangent line and the instantaneous rate of change of the function at a specific value. Students will distinguish between a tanget line and a secant line.

  • Ap Studio Art Summer Work 2021
    AP STUDIO ART SUMMER WORK 2021 MRS. BRITTANY BRYDGES-NEELY DIRECTIONS: READ THIS ENTIRE DOCUMENT. Carefully read the project criteria below and email me images of your work by the assigned due dates. Points will be deducted for late work and can seriously jeopardize your MP1 grade, there are no rolling deadlines with summer work and no extensions will be granted. If you do not understand these directions you must contact me via email; not understanding is not a valid excuse to miss deadlines, you have to communicate and ask for clarification. This project is worth 100 pts total and will set you up for success for the rest of the class and for the AP Studio Art Exam. AP Studio Art is a college-level Art course which grants much in the way of artistic expression and autonomy but demands college-level work ethic, this will be a learning experience; I expect your best work, effort and punctuality with the assigned due dates. To put this in perspective: you will only have 9 grades for the entire course, make the summer work count. IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: Any 2-dimensional media (material) and any artistic style is fair game in AP Art; however, you cannot copy imagery, artwork or photos that belong to someone else (That’s illegal. It’s fine for practice, but not ok here). This means no copyrighted imagery or cartoon characters, no Pinterest or Tiktok inspired projects and no direct copying of images you found on Google. Reference images are ok to use, but you have to tweak them using YOUR OWN CREATIVITY, in other words: find several references or photos and combine them in an interesting way.

  • Should You Take AP Calculus AB Or
    Author: Success Pathway Email: [email protected] ​ Calculus AB and BC’s significant distinction lies in the range of what you'll learn, not the difficulty level. Although both AP Calculus classes are intended to be university-level courses, Calculus AB utilizes one year to cover the equivalent of one semester of Calculus in a college ​ ​ semester. Calculus BC covers a total of two semesters. Both courses follow curriculum created ​ ​ by The College Board and requires students to take the AP exam in May. A student cannot take both AP Calculus AB and BC in the same year. AP Calculus AB teaches students Precalculus (A) and the beginning part of Calculus I (B). AP Calculus BC will also cover Calculus I (B) and part of Calculus II (C). Some of the topics covered in Calculus AB include functions, graphs, derivatives and applications, integrals and its application. On the contrary, Calculus BC will cover all of the above topics, along with polynomial approximations, Taylor series, and series of constants. AP Calculus BC Taking Precalculus and Calculus BC can prove to be a hard challenge. If a student is doing well in Precalculus and wants to pursue a degree in any math dominant career such as Engineering, they may want to consider taking Calculus BC. They will need to continue into more advanced math courses and Precalculus is a great prerequisite. They may want to consider taking AP Statistics, if their schedule allows. Taking AP Calculus BC will give students the opportunity to challenge their math skills. Provided a student passes the Calculus BC exam, they can transfer more credits to their future college than if they took Calculus AB.

  • AP Studio Art – Drawing Course Syllabus
    AP Studio Art – Drawing Course Syllabus Course Description This AP Studio Art course is designed for students who have completed he following courses; Studio Art Foundation, Drawing & Painting, Portfolio and/or have demonstrated a strong interest in the experience of art making. AP Studio Art is based on building a body of art work made up of 27 to 29 pieces of art work that is submitted to the AP College Board in the beginning of May. This portfolio is the exam. The portfolio is made up of three sections; Quality, Concentration, and Breadth. In the Quality section, students select 5 pieces of art work that successfully demonstrate mastery of design principles as applied to a two-dimensional surface. There is no preferred style or content. Medium is irrelevant. Your mastery of design should be apparent in the composition, concept, and technique of the work whether they are simple or complex. Works may be no larger than 18”X 24” including matting or mounting. Works smaller than 8”X 10” should be mounted on sheets that are at least 8”X 10”. The 5 pieces chosen for this section can be works from the Breadth and/or Concentration. In the Breadth section, students submit 12 pieces that show a variety of works demonstrating the students understanding of the Elements of Art. Include examples of line, shape, value, form, texture, space, and color in your Breadth. In the Concentration section, students submit 12 pieces of art work that demonstrates through investigation of a specific visual concept that is formulated by the student.

  • AP Classes and Their Impact on Engineering Education
    1 Session #2002-195 AP Classes and Their Impact on Engineering Education Mike Robinson, M. S. Fadali, George Ochs University of Nevada/University of Nevada/Washoe County School District Abstract Many US schools offer students the opportunity to take college level classes in mathematics and science. Studies have shown that students who take these classes are more likely to succeed in college. Other studies have shown that failure in engineering education is strongly correlated to deficiencies in mathematics and science. This paper surveys the history of Advanced Placement (AP) classes and their impact on college education in general and engineering and science education in particular. We also survey AP class offerings in a large Western county school district where a major state university is located. We estimate the number of AP classes offered in mathematics and science, and the percentage of students opting to take these classes. Our results confirm that students who take AP classes are likely to select a major in engineering, science or mathematics. Fifty per cent of students who took AP Physics said they would seek a college major in engineering. Based on the results of the school district surveyed in this study, size, location and socio economic class all affect the number of AP classes offered in high schools. I. Introduction A problem with many high schools is that challenging courses are not offered, especially in mathematics and the sciences. In its final report of 2001, The National Commission on the High School Senior Year urged states to offer challenging alternatives to the traditional high school senior year.
