About the Course

Honors Algebra II (NCAA Approved)

This full-length online Honors Algebra II course will prepare you for Pre-Calculus and Statistics. We will extend topics introduced in Algebra I and learn to manipulate and apply more advanced functions and operations to polynomials, radicals, logarithms, exponentials, sequences, trigonometric identities, probability and statistics. You’ll navigate through a variety of units and lessons comprised of homework assignments, interactive practice problems, instructional videos, written lessons, visual aids, peer forums, projects, formative and summative assessments. Graded assessments will include homework, chapter tests, projects, and a cumulative midterm, and final. Your instructor will provide engaging and informative feedback throughout the learning process, and you can email your instructor with questions at any time. Live one-on-one online review sessions can also be scheduled to prepare for graded assignments. Instructors use virtual classroom software allowing video, voice, text, screen sharing, and whiteboard interaction. This course has weekly synchronous virtual class meetings, but participation is optional. Group session information is on the webpage for class meeting times. Meetings will be recorded for students who are unable to attend due to scheduling conflicts.

Meeting times: In this course, students are required to attend scheduled online meetings. These online meetings may be used to conduct class sessions, office hours, group work, or other instructional needs. Your instructor will communicate with you to schedule the first virtual class meeting and inform you of subsequent meeting days/times.

The class will meet 1 day each week, for 1 hour. 

In the event you have a scheduling conflict, and cannot attend the synchronous meeting, contact your instructor prior to the meeting so that the recording can be shared with you. 

Time Commitment: 9-12 hours per week (1 hour of class time, 8-10 hours of independent work).
