Description
This summer course introduces students to concepts seen in an Algebra 2 course. Specifically, students will expand their knowledge of exponents, polynomials, and factoring as well as explore rational exponents, function operations, radical equations, exponential and logarithmic functions, rational expressions and equations, and an introduction to probability and data. There will be an emphasis on solving real world applications exploring polynomial, rational, and radical relationships.
Please note that this course is an abbreviated course which lasts 8 weeks. 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 1
Course Objectives
This course will focus on the following objectives:
- Interpret real and complex roots
- Perform arithmetic with polynomials and rational expressions
- Create, solve, and interpret equations algebraically and graphically
- Create and interpret functions that model relationships
- Extend knowledge of trigonometric functions and their applications
- Construct, compare, and interpret polynomial, exponential, logarithmic, rational, and radical models
Additional Requirements
Please note: This course may include course content which will require regular access to a desktop computer with a Windows/Mac operating system or Chromebook. Some parts of the course may not be able to be completed on a mobile device.
