Purpose
and Protocol
Designed so that AP Calculus teachers can have resources outside of
their own school districts. Any submissions are welcome and can
be sent to me via
email.
Please provide brief descriptions when submitting files so that I can
post the nature of the activity, lesson, etc. along with the
title. I will attempt to keep this page organized by topic and I
will include your name (and any other contact info you wish... email,
school, webpage, etc.) next to each of your contributions. If we
receive enough contributions, I will make a page for each contributor
(in addition to the topical index); this way you can search by your
favorite contributor and find activities that suit your teaching
style. Hopefully this will become a good resource for the
teachers not in close proximity to another calculus teacher.
AP
Calculus Learning Community
The AP Calculus Learning
community is a group of teachers from different schools and systems
that meets monthly. The agenda for each meeting is quite flexible
and is set by the group members at the previous meeting. In the past
year, we have had a wide range of session formats including:
Student Presentations of
Content and Technology
Teacher Presentations of Lessons, Activities, and Student Work.
Discussions about points of Difficulty (Volume Problems, Related Rates,
etc.)
Comparison of appropriate methods of review before the test.
Analysis of AP Reading by a Test Reader
If you are in the Athens area, you may wish to join us for
a meeting. For more information, visit the Learning
Community Webpage, or contact Sandy
Blount.
Online
Calculus Forum
Any questions, comments, requests for help, or random thoughts can be
posted. Hopefully this will provide an easy outlet for discussion
when you are around a computer. If this is not what you had in
mind, let me know and I'll see if I can find something better to put in
its place.
