AP Calculus bc<br />
- A/B<br />
(Required<br />
Double Period)<br />
THIS COURSE WILL further develop the student’s understanding of the<br />
concepts of calculus and provide additional developmental experience with<br />
its methods and applications. AP Calculus bc is a college level calculus<br />
course (equivalent to most colleges’ second semester of calculus) designed<br />
to prepare students for success on the College Board’s Advanced<br />
Placement Calculus bc Exam. It emphasizes a multi- representational<br />
approach to calculus with concepts, results, and problems being expressed<br />
graphically, numerically, analytically, and verbally. Broad concepts, widely<br />
applicable methods, and specific applications are the focus, and include the<br />
topics of derivatives, integrals, limits, approximations, applications,<br />
modeling, Taylor and Maclaurin series, polar coordinate systems, and<br />
parametric equations. STUDENTS WILL be challenged with higher-order<br />
thinking skills, problem-solving applications, basic programming, and<br />
abstract concept interpretations, that solidify the foundations needed for<br />
advanced work in physics, chemistry, engineering, mathematics and<br />
statistics, finance and economics, and many other career pursuits.<br />
Students will use technology regularly to reinforce the relationships among<br />
the multiple representations of functions, to confirm written work, to<br />
implement experimentation, and to assist in interpreting results. Students<br />
will be encouraged to take the Advanced Placement Calculus BC exam in<br />
May. TI-83 / TI-83 Plus or TI-84 graphing calculator is required for the<br />
course. Other graphing models are also allowed but will not be taught as a<br />
part of the course. Students who elect to take the Advanced Placement<br />
exam will be required to pay the test fee. (Qualified students may apply for<br />
financial assistance.)<br />
