20 AP PHYSICS I Course Number: 03165 1 Year Online Delivery This is a college-prep physics course with a problem-solving component. It introduces students to the principles and methods of physics and shows them how these principles are applied in order to explain the phenomena of the physical world. The inquiry-based laboratory experiences and demonstrations will give the students insight into how experimentation leads to the discovery of new scientific principles. As set forth by the College Board in the curriculum framework, this course will include the following BIG IDEAS. • BIG IDEA 1: Objects and systems have properties such as mass and charge. Systems may have internal structure. • BIG IDEA 2: Fields existing in space can be used to explain interactions. • BIG IDEA 3: The interactions of an object with other objects can be described by forces. • BIG IDEA 4: Interactions between systems can result in changes in those systems. • BIG IDEA 5: Changes that occur as a result of interactions are constrained by conservation laws. • BIG IDEA 6: Waves can transfer energy and momentum from one location to another without the permanent transfer of mass and serve as a mathematical model for the description of other phenomena. Course Prerequisites: Algebra II AP BIOLOGY Course Number: 03056 1 Year Online Delivery Adhering to the curricula recommended by the College Board and designed to parallel collegelevel introductory biology courses, AP Biology courses emphasize four general concepts: evolution; cellular processes (energy and communication); genetics and information transfer; and interactions of biological systems. For each concept, these courses emphasize the development of scientific inquiry and reasoning skills, such as designing a plan for collecting data, analyzing data, applying mathematical routines, and connecting concepts in and across domains. AP Biology courses include college-level laboratory investigations. Course Prerequisites: Strongly recommended that students have completed chemistry before enrolling in AP Biology
