  • 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.

  • 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 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.
