NC Math 4 - 24092X0
Credit: 1 unit
Prerequisite: NC Math 3
NC Math 4 focuses on functions and statistical thinking, continuing the study of algebra, functions, trigonometry and statistical concepts previously experienced in NC Math 1-3. The course is designed to be a capstone to introductory statistical concepts. Additionally, the course intentionally integrates concepts from algebra and functions to demonstrate the close relationship between algebraic reasoning as applied to the characteristics and behaviors of more complex functions. In many cases, undergraduate students majoring in non- STEM fields will take an entry-level Algebra or Introductory Statistics course. Students will be prepared for college level algebra and statistics or as a bridge to prepare students for Precalculus or other advanced math courses.
NC Math 4 Honors - 24095X0
Credit: 1 unit
Prerequisite: NC Math 3
NC Math 4 Honors addresses the topics of NC Math 4 at a more comprehensive and rigorous level. Additional topics and requirements with real-world applications are included.
Pre-Calculus Honors - 24035X0
Credit: 1 unit
Prerequisite: NC Math 3
Precalculus will build upon the study of algebra, functions, and trigonometry experienced in previous high school mathematics courses. This course will build on students’ algebraic skills and understanding of functions to delve into real world phenomena and to deepen
understanding of the functions in the course. This course is designed for students pursuing careers in STEM-related fields. Students will be prepared for Calculus, AP Calculus and any entry- level college course.
AP Pre-Calculus - 2A047X0
Credit: 1 unit
Prerequisite: NC Math 3 Honors
In AP Precalculus, students explore everyday situations and phenomena using mathematical tools and lenses. Through regular practice, students build deep mastery of modeling and functions, and they examine scenarios through multiple representations. They will learn how to
observe, explore, and build mathematical meaning from dynamic systems, an important practice for thriving in an ever-changing world. This course prepares students for calculus and prepares students to succeed in both STEM and no-STEM majors. At the completion of the course, students take the Advanced Placement Exam and may receive college credit based upon their scores and the requirements of the college of their choice.
AP Calculus (AB and BC) - 2A007X0 and 2A017X0
Credit: 1 unit each course
Prerequisite: Pre-Calculus
AP Calculus follows the College Board Curriculum to develop the students’ understanding of the concepts of calculus (functions, graphs, limits, derivatives, and integrals) and provides experiences with its methods and applications. These courses encourage the geometric,
numerical, analytical, and verbal expressions of concepts, results, and problems. Appropriate technology, from manipulatives to calculators and application software, will be used regularly for instruction and assessment. At the completion of the course, students take the Advanced Placement Exam and may receive college credit based upon their scores and the requirements of the college of their choice.
AP Statistics - 2A037X0
Credit: 1 unit
Prerequisite: NC Math 3
AP Statistics, which follows the College Board Curriculum, introduces students to the major statistical concepts and tools for collecting, analyzing, and drawing conclusions from data. Students will observe patterns and departures from patterns, decide what and how to measure,
produce models using probability and simulation, and confirm models. Appropriate technology, from manipulatives to calculators and application software, will be used regularly for instruction and assessment. At the completion of the course, students take the Advanced Placement Exam and may receive college credit based upon their scores and the requirements of the college of their choice.
