Calculus

Grade 12
Written By Peter Friedman

Calculus Online High School Course

COURSE LENGTH:

Full Year (30 Sessions)

COURSE DESCRIPTION:

Calculus is an intermediate level course for those who have successfully completed a pre-calculus class. In order to succeed in this course students must have have strong problem solving abilities and a clear understanding of functions and function behavior. This is a full year course, consisting of 30 synchronous sessions. Each session will have approximately 1 hour of corresponding asynchronous material. This material will help students develop skills so that synchronous class time can be spent on answering questions and problem solving. The course will cover one textbook section per synchronous class. Students will have summative assessments on a unit basis (there are 3 units). Formative assessments after each chapter section will provide students with feedback on what to practice.

COURSE LENGTH:

  • 30 hours of synchronous work

  • 45 hours of asynchronous work

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

  • Analyze functions graphically, numerically, and analytically

  • Model real world situations using functions

  • Understand the relationship between derivatives and rates of change and be comfortable analyzing real-valued functions using differential calculus

  • Understand the connection between the derivative and the integral as expressed by the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus

  • Understand the relationship between integrals and the limits of Reimann sums
