Overview
Algebra 2 is a standards-based, interactive, hands-on curriculum that utilizes
computer hardware and software technology to present mathematical topics on an
individualized student basis. Concepts taught in this course will introduce the
Pennsylvania standards in algebra, probability, and data analysis as well as
numerous examples and exercises involving geometry and trigonometry. A
graphing calculator will be used during problem solving activities. Emphasis will
be placed on the Pennsylvania Math and Technology standards.
Assignments
To successfully complete this credit recovery course, the student should
participate in all activities and must complete all deliverables. The student is
solely responsible for documenting all work in a timely manner using the
resources provided at Blendedschools.net. Failure to do so may result in a failing
grade for this course. Deliverables are to be submitted as indicated.
Activities
There are a variety of different activities in the course that the student is
encouraged to engage in. These range from a baseline exercise at the outset of
the course, to online tutorials, to streaming video content, to PowerPoint
presentations, to computer simulations. While many of these activities are not
graded, they are a primary conduit for learning. The student will generally be
asked to mark these activities as complete before continuing with subsequent
coursework.

Deliverables
There are four types of deliverables that are integral to the completion of this
course: homework assignments, discussions (& voice boards), GRASP Unit
Projects, and unit exams.
Homework (20-40 points per week)
Students must submit answers to all homework questions, and only correct responses will
receive credit. Homework may be submitted until they are completely correct, at which point,
they will receive full credit.
Discussions / Voice Boards (1 per week)
Discussions and voice board activities are vital to the successful completion of the course, and
there will be one of each type of activity per week. Deadlines for these activities must be met,
as they facilitate interaction with other students in the course. Bonus points will be given at the
end of the course for students that actively participate in Discussion Boards.
G.R.A.S.P. Unit Projects (2)
Each unit, students will demonstrate their knowledge of the content by engaging in a project.
Unit Exams (1 every two weeks – 20-50 points each)
In addition to daily coursework, there are three mandatory EXAMS scheduled for this course –
July 19th, August 2nd, and August 16th given from 9:00 am to 11:30 am. These constitute
summative performance assessments and must be taken in the prescribed proctored
environment during the specified time window on the published dates, and must be completed
once started.
