Why choose AP Statistics? My college major requires the course. I like lab classes where I can see the concepts. I like homework that is challenging.

9th Grade Math Courses Level of Independence Grading Sample Problems

Standard Level (College Prep.)

Honors Level

Multigrade Courses

Advanced Level

A nation-wide, comprehensive math program begun in California in 1989 and subsequently supported by the National Science Foundation

Curriculum Goals Designed for a heterogeneous classroom Integrated topics in each course: Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Statistics, Pre-Calculus, Calculus Unit-based: 4 to 5 units per year Problem-based: Includes long term, open-ended investigations Focus on developing student understanding

Algebra-Geometry-Algebra 2 vs. IMP

Research Results Standardized test scores are the same or higher Quantitative reasoning, problem solving and statistics test results are much higher Positive attitude towards mathematics Number of years of college-preparatory mathematics classes completed is higher

A Day in the Life of IMP Review previous night’s homework In groups or with class presentations Teacher input as needed Student centered activity or problems In small groups or as class activity Rarely teacher led instruction Individual/Group presentations of findings Make connections Share ideas New homework assignment

Assessments Daily Homework Assignments Usually involve explanations of concepts POWs: Problems of the Week Long-term assignments Open-ended investigations Written report of discoveries Portfolios Summarize main mathematical ideas Include activities from the unit Personal growth reflection Mid-Unit and End of Unit Exams

Resources Classroom Teachers Office Hours Expectation documents distributed at start of school year Teacher Websites Math Center
