  • AP® STEM Participation and Postsecondary STEM Outcomes: Focus on Underrepresented Minority, First-Generation, and Female Students
    AP® STEM Participation and Postsecondary STEM Outcomes: Focus on Underrepresented Minority, First-Generation, and Female Students Kara Smith, senior director at Macmillan Learning Sanja Jagesic, assistant research scientist at the College Board Jeff Wyatt, research scientist at the College Board Maureen Ewing, senior director at the College Board Visit © 2018 The College Board collegeboard.org Executive Summary Projections by the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (2012) point to a need for approximately one million more STEM professionals than the U.S. will be able to produce considering the current rate of STEM postsecondary degree completions (Executive Office of the President of the United States, 2012). Do Advanced Placement® (AP®) courses in STEM complement the desire for more students completing STEM majors? In this study we ask if participation and performance in Advanced Placement STEM Exams in high school is predictive of a student’s performance in STEM courses in the first year of college and the likelihood that a student will graduate with a STEM major, particularly for traditionally underrepresented populations in STEM fields—first­ generation, underrepresented minority, and female students. We find that AP STEM examinees had 7% higher first-year STEM grades and a 13% higher probability of STEM major completion than matched non-AP STEM peers. Nearly all of these positive results held for first-generation, underrepresented minority, and female students. 2 Contents Introduction ...............................................................................................................6

  • Advanced Placement Courses
    West High School Advanced Placement Courses Advanced Placement American Government AP American Government is an intensive study of the American national government. The goals of this course are to increase understanding of the American political system, including its framework, traditions and values. The course is concerned with the nature of the American political system, its development over the past 200 plus years, and how it continues to function into its third century. The principal processes and institutions through which the political system functions, as well as some of the public policies which these institutions implement, are studied in detail. Advanced Placement Art History AP Art History is designed to provide the same benefits to secondary school students as those provided by an introductory college course in art history, namely an understanding and enjoyment of architecture, sculpture, painting, and other art forms within historical and cultural contexts. In the course, students examine major forms of artistic expression from the past and present and from a variety of cultures. They learn to look at works of art critically, with intelligence and sensitivity, and to articulate what they see or experience. Advanced Placement Art Studio AP Art Studio is a rigorous college-level program intended for highly motivated students who are seriously interested in the study of art. Study areas and directions are mutually agreed upon. Students keep sketchbooks, write essays, and develop their ability to talk about their art. Students submit a digital portfolio to the College Board of Examination Committee. Advanced Placement Biology AP Biology is a challenging and stimulating course equivalent to a two semester college introductory biology course.

  • TPHS Course Profile AP Physics 2
    TPHS Course Profile AP Physics 2 11th-12th Grade (10 Credits) • Meets high school graduation requirement for Physical Science • Meets the UC/CSU subject area "D" requirement • Prerequisite: AP Physics 1 • Recommended credit in integrated math 2 or higher General Information Description AP Physics2 is an algebra-based college level physics course that covers what is typically encountered in a first semester introductory college physics class. Topics covered include electricity, magnetism, optics, thermodynamics, fluids, nuclear, and quantum physics. A large portion of the course involves hands-on laboratory work and application of those experiences to science practices, such as learning to design experiments, establish evidence, analyze data, develop testable explanations and make predictions. For a complete description of the course, please refer to the college board link here:https://apcentral.collegeboard.org/courses/ap-physics-2/course Expectations and Goals AP Physics 2 has a significant laboratory component that allows students to learn about the concepts of physics through firsthand observations and experimentation. With those laboratory exercises, students will be expected to turn in written reports of their findings and the analysis of their findings, including appropriate graphical presentations of their data. Examples of laboratory exercises may include determining magnetic fields, heat engines, fluid flow dynamics, optics of lenses, etc. This course is designed to prepare students to take the Advanced Placement Physics 2 exam in the spring. Upon completion of this course, students will be prepared to continue on to AP Physics C, a more rigorous a calculus-based university physics course for engineering and physical science majors. Estimated Homework Students will be expected to apply independent study skills and do practice problems outside of class, in addition to what is taught in class.

  • Ap Physics 2 Syllabus
    Mr. Price NAME _________________________________ 2017 Marvin Ridge High School AP PHYSICS 2 SYLLABUS Welcome to AP Physics 2! This is a rigorous, conceptual, mathematically-based experimental science course which involves study of the world around us. It is a follow-up course to AP Physics 1. Some of the major topics are: electrostatics, more DC circuits, magnetism and electromagnetic induction, thermodynamics, fluids, optics, and nuclear physics. This course will have a separate AP exam (in addition to that exam given for AP Physics 1) given on Wednesday, May 3rd of 2017, which is the 64th school day of semester 2... So, we have to move at a brisk pace to ensure time to review for this course, and also the AP Physics 1 exam which is given on May 2nd. Text: “College Physics” 2nd Edition, by Knight and published by Pearson. Please take good care of your assigned book. This is a fairly new book and costs around $150. If you lose it or damage it you will be charged. There is an online edition to this text which can be good! The book will be used as a resource and will not necessarily be used daily. The course (designed by the College Board) is organized around 7 “Big Ideas,” 7 “Science Practices,” and “foundational physics principles.” I’ll put the entire document on our Moodle page, but here is the basic organizational breakdown from the College Board: Seven Big Ideas: 1. Objects and systems have properties such as mass and charge. Systems may have internal structure. 2. Fields existing in space can be used to explain interactions.
