Course programme

Learn the most challenging topics in AP® Calculus AB & Calculus BC. Well-respected AP instructors from around the United States will lead you through video instruction, exam-style questions and interactive activities. Each module will cover one of the most demanding concepts in this AP® Calculus AB & Calculus BC (based on College Board data from 2011–2013 Advanced Placement® exams). These tricky topics are broken up into bite-sized pieces—with short instructional videos, interactive graphs, and practice problems written by many of the same people who write and grade your AP® Calculus exams. Topics include: AB/BC: Limits AB/BC: Definition of Derivative AB/BC: Chain Rule AB/BC: Implicit Differentiation BC*: L’Hospital’s Rule AB/BC: Riemann Sums AB/BC: Functions Defined by Definite Integrals AB/BC: Modeling & Solving Differential Equations (1) AB/BC: Modeling & Solving Differential Equations (2) AB/BC: Rectilinear Motion BC: Parametric Equations BC: Introduction to Series BC: Series Convergence BC: Series Manipulation This course is specifically designed for blended learning in AP classrooms, but can also be used by AP students independently as supplementary help and exam review. *L’Hospital’s Rule will become an AB/BC topic in 2016-2017.
