This is an extension of a previously started series. Anyone is welcome to join; but we have already covered out first unit of study. Enrollment will be closed after our first session. Series Outline: Unit 2: Polynomial and Radical Equations & Inequalities - Polynomials - Quadratic Equations & Inequalities - Polynomial Functions Unit 3: Advanced Functions & Relations - Conic Sections - Rational Expressions & Equations - Exponents & Logarithms Unit 4: Discrete Mathematics - Sequences & Series - Probability & Statistics Unit 5: Trigonometry - Trigonometric Functions - Trigonometric Graphs & Equations This course includes quizzes & exams throughout to check progress. Quizzes are short and check progress on 2-3 topics, while exams cover multiple topics.

NOTE FOR NEW LEARNERS: - If you are joining late, that is totally okay and we are excited to have you. However, we will not go back and cover old content. - If you want to schedule a makeup/review session to go back and cover skills we have already covered, we would be happy to arrange it. - Enrollment will be shut again after we complete our first unit of study. Series Overview - This series will cover the content of a typical Honors Algebra II class. - By the end of this series, you should have full mastery of Algebra 2, and be fully prepared for higher classes such as AP Pre-Calculus & College Algebra. - You will also develop an important 21st century skill - Critical Thinking & Reasoning. This course has assignments that allow you to use your reasoning skills and apply your knowledge. - Throughout the course there will be short quizzes & tests to check your progress. There will also be cumulative exams for each unit of study, and a mid-course & end-of-course exam covering all content. Series Outline & Pacing - Unit 1: First Degree Equations & Inequalities (Ch 1-4) - Unit 2: Polynomial and Radical Equations & Inequalities (Ch 5-7) - Unit 3: Advanced Functions & Relations (Ch 8-10) - Unit 4: Discrete Mathematics (Ch 11-12) - Unit 5: Trigonometry (Ch 13-14)

Meeting Times - We will meet Mondays, Wednesdays & Fridays from 6:30 to 8:30 CST. - Times can be modified and adjusted to suit learners needs. Course Content & Prerequisites This course will be broken into two semesters, and cover 14 chapters of content. Semester 1 - Chapter 1: Solving Equations & Inequalities - Chapter 2: Linear Relations & Functions - Chapter 3: Systems of Equations & Inequalities - Chapter 4: Matrices - Chapter 5: Polynomials - Chapter 6: Quadratic Functions & Inequalities - Chapter 7: Polynomial Functions Semester 2 - Chapter 8: Conic Sections - Chapter 9: Rational Expressions & Equations - Chapter 10: Exponential & Logarithmic Relations - Chapter 11: Sequences & Series - Chapter 12: Probability & Statistics - Chapter 13: Trigonometric Functions - Chapter 14: Trigonometric Graphs & Identities It is suggested that students successfully complete both Algebra I & Geometry - however students may come in at any skill level as long as they have a decent understanding of the basics of algebra. Pacing - This course will have a very fast pace. Each chapter will be covered in 1-2 sessions, and the chapter test will be taken the same day. - It is important to be able to keep a consistent focus and ask questions when you need help and to keep up with what we are doing. Grading & Assessment You will receive a course grade for each semester based on a weighted average system. Each category of assignments will be worth a different amount. Grades are also given on a 10-point scale (90.00% = A, 80.00% = B). - Weekly Notes: 10% - Chapter Tests: 40% - Essay Assignments: 20% - Midterm/Final Exam: 30% - You will have a 20 question multiple-choice test at the end of every chapter. - At the end of every semester, you will have a 45-70 question test covering all the content up to that point. - Alongside your semester/final exam, you will have an essay test that requires you to extend your knowledge and explain your work.
