Honors Precalculus

Grade 11
Written By Peter Friedman

Honors Precalculus Online High School Course

COURSE LENGTH:

Full Year (30 Sessions)

COURSE DESCRIPTION:

This is a honors level Pre-Calculus course with a total of 10 modules. The 10 modules will be covered in 30 synchronous sessions.  Students will be assessed on their ability to complete calculations, as well as their ability to explain the concepts that they have learned and apply them to real-world situations.  Assignments will be given after every synchronous session, while assessments will be given, in general, after every three synchronous sessions. The course will move at a pace that will allow students who have successfully completed Honors Algebra 2 to extend their mathematical knowledge and skills. 

In this honors-level course, asynchronous assignments will require students to practice multiple skills and will often have multiple steps of parts. Students in this honors-level course are expected to complete asynchronous work fully and on time and to participate regularly during synchronous sessions. Students will be asked to reflect often on their learning. 

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

In addition to learning the mathematical concepts covered in this course, students will learn the importance of critical thinking, persevering through difficult problems and concepts, justifying their calculations and process, and understanding the unique language of mathematics. After the completion of the course, students will have learned and have a strong understanding of the following topics:

  • Functions and Graphs

  • Power Functions

  • Polynomial Functions

  • Rational Functions

  • Exponential and Logarithmic Functions

  • Trigonometric Functions

  • Analytic Trigonometry

  • Applications of Trigonometry

  • Systems of Equations

  • Matrices

  • Analytic Geometry in Two and Three Dimensions

  • Discrete Mathematics

  • Limits

  • Derivatives
