• Regardless of the course level, courses will be consistent with the [PDF] for high school. [PDF] offers a starting point for developing courses that align with these standards. • Courses will also recognize the hierarchical nature of mathematics, and advanced courses (referenced in #3 below) should demonstrate growth in depth and complexity, both in mathematical maturity as well as in topical organization. • Courses may be part of the traditional Algebra 1 - Geometry - Algebra 2 sequence or other sequences that may treat these topics in an integrated fashion. In addition, acceptable courses may be combinations of integrated courses, algebra, geometry, and other courses that address the [PDF], including courses that apply these standards in the development of career-related skills.

Unlike static PDF Harcourt Mathematics 12: Geometry and Discrete Mathematics solution manuals or printed answer keys, our experts show you how to solve each problem step-by-step. No need to wait for office hours or assignments to be graded to find out where you took a wrong turn.
• Courses that use mathematical concepts, include a mathematics prerequisite, and are intended for 11th and/or 12th grade levels are also eligible for approval. • Such courses may incorporate math in an applied form in conjunction with science or career technical education.
They must deepen students’ understanding of mathematics by incorporating the depth described in the ICAS Statement on Competencies in Mathematics Expected of Entering College Students [PDF]. • Examples of such courses include, but are not limited to, trigonometry, linear algebra, pre-calculus (analytic geometry and mathematical analysis), calculus, discrete math, probability and statistics, and computer science.
For instance, a computer science course with primary focus on coding methods alone would not fulfill the mathematics requirement, whereas one with substantial mathematical content (e.g., mathematical induction, proof techniques, or other topics from discrete mathematics) could satisfy the requirement. • Courses that are based largely on repetition of material from a prerequisite or prior course (e.g., as test preparation or pre-college review) will not be approved. • Most approved courses will satisfy a single year of the subject requirement, with a few exceptions: • A course covering only trigonometry, for example, would fulfill only half a year, but a single course covering trigonometry with significant integration of other advanced math content related to pre-calculus could fulfill one year of the requirement. • Mathematics courses taken over multiple terms that go beyond one year (e.g., three or four semesters) are acceptable but the course will be approved to satisfy only one year (or two semesters) of study.
Courses that satisfy this subject requirement will support students to: • Apply mathematical knowledge in a way that allows them to analyze and understand a broad array of phenomena (i.e., math is more than just rote memorization of definitions, algorithms, and/or theorems). • Use mathematics to grasp and persevere in solving unfamiliar problems, and justify their solutions to those problems based on understanding the purpose behind each concept and skill they apply. • Find and use patterns of reasoning or structure, make and test conjectures, try multiple representations (e.g., symbolic, geometric, graphical) and approaches (e.g., deduction, mathematical induction, linking to known results).

Honors-level mathematics (C) courses will be demonstrably more challenging than non-honors courses, and will fulfill the following criteria: •.
