From FLVS: Algebra 1 is the foundation—the skills acquired in this course contain the basic knowledge needed for all future high school math courses. The material covered in this course is important, but everyone can do it. Everyone can have a good time solving the hundreds of real-world problems algebra can help answer. Course activities make the numbers, graphs, and equations more real. The content in this course is tied to real-world applications like sports, travel, business, and health. This course is designed to give students the skills and strategies to solve all kinds of mathematical problems. Students will also acquire the confidence needed to handle everything high school math has in store for them. Algebra 1 emphasizes the importance of algebra in everyday life through hundreds of real-world examples. Assessments are designed to ensure that your understanding goes beyond rote memorization of steps and procedures. Upon successful course completion, you will have a strong foundation in Algebra 1 and will be prepared for other higher level math courses.
From FLVS: Geometry exists everywhere in the world around us. We use it to build bridges, to design maps, and to create perspective in paintings. Throughout this course, you will use problem solving and real-world application to gain the knowledge of geometric concepts and their practical uses. This is a required math course for high school graduation.
From FLVS: Algebra 2 is an advanced course using hands-on activities, applications, group interactions, and the latest technology. Students will learn about polynomials, quadratic equations, linear, nonlinear, exponential and logarithmic functions, sequences, probability and statistics, and inequalities. Throughout the course, these mathematical concepts are applied to everyday occurrences to demonstrate how the world around us functions. Interactive examples help guide students’ journeys through customized feedback and praise. Students have opportunities to work with their peers on specific lessons.
From College Board: AP Precalculus is designed to be the equivalent of a first semester college precalculus course. AP Precalculus provides students with an understanding of the concepts of college algebra, trigonometry, and additional topics that prepare students for further college-level mathematics courses. This course explores a variety of function types and their applications—polynomial, rational, exponential, logarithmic, trigonometric, polar, parametric, vector-valued, implicitly defined, and linear transformation functions using matrices. Throughout the course, the mathematical practices of procedural and symbolic fluency, multiple representations, and communication and reasoning are developed. Students experience the concepts and skills related to each function type through the lenses of modeling and covariation and engage each function type through their graphical, numerical, analytical, and verbal representations.
From FLVS: Students in this course will walk in the footsteps of Newton and Leibnitz. An interactive course framework combines with the exciting on-line course delivery to make calculus an adventure. The course includes a study of limits, continuity, differentiation, integration, differential equations, and the applications of derivatives and integrals, parametric and polar equations, and infinite sequences and series. An Advanced Placement (AP) course in calculus consists of a full high school year of work that is comparable to calculus courses in colleges and universities. It is expected that students who take an AP course in calculus will seek college credit, college placement, or both, from institutions of higher learning. Most colleges and universities offer a sequence of several courses in calculus, and entering students are placed within this sequence according to the extent of their preparation, as measured by the results of an AP examination or other criteria.
From UF: MAC 2233 surveys the important ideas of calculus but emphasizing its applications to business, economics, life, and social sciences. The course covers important precalculus topics: basics of functions and graphing, specific functions and their applications as models (linear, quadratic, rational, exponential, and logarithmic) as well as calculus: limits, differentiation, applications of the derivative, introduction to integration, and its applications including area.
From FLVS: Advanced Placement Statistics will introduce students to exploring data, sampling and experimentation by planning and conducting studies, anticipating patterns using probability and simulation, and using statistical inference to analyze data and draw conclusions.
