Algebra 1

Algebra 1 is a completely re-designed course that offers 100% alignment to the Common Core State Standards for mathematics. The specific standard alignment for each lesson is visible to both educators and students. In addition to the emphasis on alignment, the lessons in the new course are designed to be shorter in length than lessons of previous versions, offering focused exploration of topics to make concepts more digestible for students. Practice questions are included with each lesson, including technology enhanced items and explanations to assist students in their understanding of the concepts. New features to support student mastery include worksheets for practice and guided notes to help students record key takeaways as they move through the tutorial. This course is also built around student engagement, with more interactive lessons and videos that work through examples and model problem-solving skills.

Algebra 2 

This course advances students’ ability to think algebraically, taking their earlier work with linear, exponential, and quadratic equations and expanding on it with polynomials and more advanced equation types. Students will work with rational, radical, logarithmic, inverse, and piecewise functions. They will also extend their studies to include systems of equations and inequalities, trigonometry, complex numbers, and statistics. This course emphasizes using these algebraic concepts to solve problems and help people in many walks of life. Algebra 2 employs many tools to teach students these concepts, including interactive graphing, videos that walk through problems, and many practice items.

Geometry 

This course is a comprehensive examination of geometric concepts with each lesson providing thorough explanations that build upon each lesson. Geometry features animations, which allow students to manipulate angles or create shapes, such as triangles, and engage students in learning and enhancing mastery. Step-by-step instruction and multiple opportunities for self-check practice develop skills and confidence in students as they progress through this course. Labs extend comprehension by giving students hands-on experiences.

Pre-Calculus

Pre-calculus builds on algebraic concepts to prepare students for calculus. This course begins with a review of basic algebraic concepts and moves into operations with functions where students manipulate functions and their graphs. Pre-calculus also provides a detailed look at trigonometric functions, their graphs, the trigonometric identities, and the unit circle. Finally, students are introduced to polar coordinates, parametric equations, and limits.
