Description
This is a flexible, instructor-led, credit recovery Pre-Calculus course. Instructors regularly interact with students, answer questions, and give feedback on work. This course covers Pre-Calculus concepts for credit recovery. Students may work at their own pace to complete the content and may take up to 15 weeks to complete the course. This is a course that introduces students to concepts seen in a Pre-Calculus course. It is intended to prepare students for advanced mathematics courses. Specifically, students will primarily explore functions that include linear, polynomial, rational, exponential and logarithmic functions. This course will also cover select topics from advanced trigonometry including trigonometric and circular functions, their graphs, and trigonometric identities and equations. There will be an emphasis on solving real world applications throughout the course. Please note that this course is an abbreviated course. Therefore, the course does not cover a full year’s curriculum with the same depth that is covered in a year-long course. Students are expected to work approximately 8-10 hours per week. In addition, if the student is taking this course for credit recovery or initial credit, it is strongly advised that you check with the student's school to confirm that the topics covered (see course syllabus) match those required by the school. You may also want to confirm with the school the process for receiving credits, which may involve an assessment administered separately by the school.
Prerequisites
Algebra 2
Course Objectives
This course will focus on the following objectives:- Perform arithmetic operations with polynomials and rational expressions
- Analyze functions using different representations
- Build functions that model relationships
- Identify and apply trigonometric identities
- Interpret and apply complex numbers
Additional Requirements
Students should have access to a graphing calculator (TI-83 or TI-84).
*Students who plan to transfer credit from VHS Learning to their full-time high school should check with their school to confirm they will accept the credits before registering for a VHS Learning Credit Recovery course.
