Workshop Overview
This workshop is designed to prepare teachers for success with the Advanced Placement Statistics curriculum. Teachers will be introduced to many varied lessons and hands-on activities appropriate for use in the classroom.
Participants will also become familiar with the new College Board AP materials that were ‘rolled out’ in Fall 2019. An appropriate amount of time is dedicated to the AP Statistics Exam. Teachers will become familiar with Free Response rubrics through discussion of actual student responses and practice grading.
A successful workshop experience will create a higher comfort level with the curriculum, as well as a larger and more varied “bag of tricks” for classroom instruction. Equally important, the APSI is intended to create a network/support system for teachers.

How Online Workshops Will Work
No one wants to sit and watch a 32-hour long webinar, so we are working closely with our consultants to develop a modified course schedule that allows you greater flexibility, but still gives you the knowledge and skills you need.
Live-online instruction will be conducted through Zoom while asynchronous learning assignments will be managed through Canvas, the University’s learning management system (LMS).
Once you register, we will provide you with more details on how to access the platforms as well as your materials.
