  • Should I Sign up for AP Latin IV?
    Should I Sign Up for AP Latin IV? 1 AP LATIN COURSE DESCRIPTION The AP Latin course is designed to give you the experiences needed to be successful on the College Board AP Latin exam scheduled in early May each year. This course will [1] help you develop your ability to translate the required passages from Caesar’s De bello Gallico and Vergil’s Aeneid into English as literally as possible, [2] help you understand the context of the written passages through analysis and be able to communicate that context and analysis, [3] help you understand style of writing and the rhetorical devices employed. By the end of AP Latin IV you will have translated all the Latin of Vergil and Caesar assigned by the College Board. You will learn to analyze the text and draw your own logical conclusions in written essays. You will both give and receive written criticism of your analytical essays throughout the course. You will read Latin prose and poetry aloud with accurate comprehension and appreciation. For the Vergil text, you will scan dactylic hexameter verse. You will practice AP style exam questions and sight passages during both semesters and complete a full “mock up” exam as the final exam in the second semester of the course. 1.1 SPECIFICS The class meets on Thursdays at 1 Pm ET You must make your own arrangements to take the exam at your local testing facility. Yes, this is a College Board approved syllabus and course. You can list it on your transcript as an AP Latin course, come what may.

One of the most common replies is "Because I wanted to figureout why people do what they do:' Motivation theories address this question directly. Motivations are feelings or ideas that cause us to act toward a goal. Some motivations are obvious and conscious, but some are more subtle. In this chapter, we will review the connections between physiology and motivation, general motivation theories, and specific examples of motivation in hunger and sex. Finally, we will review the psychological research and theories about emotion and stress that are closely related to motivation theory. THEORIES OF MOTIVATION If you have pets, you know that differentanimals are born with 'instincts, which are automatic behaviors performed in response to specific stimuli. Your cat did not have to learn how to clean MOTIVATION AND EMOTION 153 itself, it was born with this instinct.

Wilhelm Wundt: set up the first psychological laboratory. i. trained subjects in introspection: examine your own cognitive processing- known as structuralism ii. study the role of consciousness; changes from philosophy to a science ii. Also used by Edward Titchener c. William James: published first psychology textbook; examined how the structures identified by Wundt function in our lives- functionalism i. Based off of Darwin’s theory of evolution 4.

  • AP Course Descriptions AP Biology AP Biology Is an Introductory
    AP Course Descriptions AP Biology AP Biology is an introductory college-level biology course. Students cultivate their understanding of biology through inquiry-based investigations as they explore the following topics: evolution, cellular processes – energy and communication, genetics, information transfer, ecology, and interactions. Laboratory Requirement: This course requires that 25 percent of the instructional time will be spent in hands-on laboratory work, with an emphasis on inquiry-based investigations that provide students with opportunities to apply the science practices. Prerequisites: Students should have successfully completed high school courses in biology and chemistry. More information can be found on the AP Biology Course Overview Website. AP Calculus AB AP Calculus AB is roughly equivalent to a first semester college calculus course devoted to topics in differential and integral calculus. The AP course covers topics in these areas, including concepts and skills of limits, derivatives, definite integrals, and the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus. Students will learn how to approach calculus concepts and problems when they are represented graphically, numerically, analytically, and verbally, and how to make connections amongst these representations. Students will also learn how to use technology to help solve problems, experiment, interpret results, and support conclusions. Recommended Prerequisites: All students should complete the equivalent of four years of secondary mathematics designed for college-bound students: courses which should prepare them with a strong foundation in reasoning with algebraic symbols and working with algebraic structures. Prospective calculus students should take courses in which they study algebra, geometry, trigonometry, analytic geometry, and elementary functions. More information can be found on the AP Calculus AB Course Overview website.

  • About the Class Mr. Zimny Course Description AP Biology Is An
    AP Biology - About The Class Mr. Zimny Course Description AP Biology is an introductory year long college-level biology course. Students cultivate their understanding of biology through inquiry-based investigations as they explore the following topics: evolution, cellular processes — energy and communication, genetics, information transfer, ecology, and interactions. This course follows the College Board Advanced Placement syllabus and students must take the national college board exam in May. Successfully passing the AP Biology Exam is meant to take the place of two 4 credit college level lab science general biology classes. It is typically recommended to college students that they spend 6 hours a week in the classroom/ laboratory and an additional 6 to 9 hours outside of class studying per week for each of these two classes. Prerequisites for this class are an (A) Average in General Biology & an (A or B) average in General Chemistry Big Ideas The AP Biology curriculum framework is divided into broad groups of concept that run throughout most of biology called Big Ideas; they are supported by additional themes and concepts as articulated in the learning objectives. Big Idea 1: The process of evolution drives the diversity and unity of life. Big Idea 2: ​ ​ Biological systems utilize free energy and molecular building blocks to grow, to reproduce and to maintain dynamic homeostasis. Big Idea 3: Living systems store, retrieve, transmit and respond to information essential to life ​ processes. Big Idea 4: Biological systems interact, and these systems and their interactions possess ​ complex properties. Science Practices The AP Biology Exam also asks students to develop and use certain scientific practices in the effort to model actual, genuine scientific research.
