Toán học & Khoa học Máy tính

College Prep’s math program is problem based and student centered.
Using an approach that integrates the traditional areas of mathematics—algebra, geometry, trigonometry, pre-calculus, and calculus—throughout six sequential levels of study, students become independent learners who excel in reading, writing, exploring, applying, and communicating math concepts.
The curriculum is structured around these principles:
  • Đại số là nền tảng như một công cụ mô hình hóa và giải quyết vấn đề
  • Hình học trong hai và ba chiều được tích hợp giữa các chủ đề ở tất cả các cấp và bao gồm các phương pháp tiếp cận tọa độ và chuyển đổi
  • Nghiên cứu vectơ, ma trận, đếm, phân tích dữ liệu và các chủ đề khác từ toán học rời rạc được dệt thành các khóa học cốt lõi
  • Các hoạt động dựa trên máy tính và dựa trên máy tính là một phần của các khóa học cốt lõi
  • Các chủ đề được khám phá trực quan, tượng trưng và bằng lời nói
  • Khả năng phát triển các chiến lược giải quyết vấn đề phụ thuộc vào một cơ thể tích lũy kiến thức

These principles are addressed in the integrated curricula of Math 1-6. Math 3, 4, and 5 are offered at two levels that showcase different teaching and learning styles. The standard classes feature more direct teacher instruction and cover fewer topics. The “i” versions of each course cover more topics at a faster pace as students work more independently. Both levels require collaboration in the form of daily group work among four tablemates. The program also offers opportunities for advanced work, including single variable and multivariable calculus, descriptive and inferential statistics, and abstract algebra. Math Club, open to all interested students, meets regularly to share ideas and investigate problems beyond the scope of the regular curriculum and to help students prepare for local and national math competitions.

A placement test is used to determine the appropriate level of math for each incoming student. Math support is available via the Math & Science Support Specialist as well as from teachers in the math office and peer tutors via the math squad.

  • Toán 1

    This course involves foundational problem-solving skills, the translation of prose into mathematical equations and diagrams, oral and written presentations of mathematical processes, and mathematical intuition. Topics from algebra and geometry are integrated and include conversions and rates, proportional reasoning, area and perimeter, linear and quadratic equations, transformations of curves, inequalities, absolute values, and coordinate geometry. An emphasis on algebra skills supports problem solving.

  • Toán 2

    This course includes topics from algebra, geometry, and trigonometry. Students learn techniques and theorems through problem solving. Collaborative study helps develop the ability to reflect on and explain mathematical processes. Topics include lines, polygons, vectors, circles, triangles, quadrilaterals and parabolas, and right triangle trigonometry. Similarity and congruence are studied through the lens of transformations. An investigation of linear motion leads to the use of parameters and consideration of optimal paths of travel.

  • Toán 3 và 3i

    These courses explore nonlinear motion and nonlinear functions: circular motion and the functions that describe it, ellipses and hyperbolas, exponential and logarithmic functions, dot products and matrices, and geometry on the surface of the earth. Advanced trigonometric techniques recur throughout the course. Logarithms are used to straighten nonlinear data, and matrices are used to describe geometric transformations and various patterns of growth.

  • Toán 4 và 4i

    These courses build on the foundation of function and trigonometry and continue into introductory calculus. Analysis topics include sequences and series, vectors, polar and parametric functions, and complex numbers. Trigonometry topics include sum/difference formulas and trigonometric identities. Calculus topics include limits, first and second derivatives of the basic functions, applications to maxima and minima and rates of change, as well as integration techniques and applications to area and volume. Math 4i includes topics from discrete math (combinatorics and probability), and vectors (the dot product and its applications).

  • Toán 5 và 5i

    These courses are equivalent to differential and integral calculus at the college level. Topics include techniques and applications of derivatives and integrals, various applications of L’Hôpital’s rule, convergence tests for infinite series, and Maclaurin and Taylor polynomials and series. Math 5i covers calculus of polar curves.

  • Math 6: Linear Algebra

    This multivariable calculus course starts with the tools, techniques, and concepts of linear algebra, emphasizing linear algebraic systems (together with matrix wizardry) to generalize toward underlying abstract structures: vector spaces, linear maps, and the fundamental theorem of linear algebra. Later topics include inner products and norms, orthogonality (including Gram-Schmidt factorization, Legendre polynomials), eigenvalues and singular values (including the spectral theorem, the Schur decomposition and Jordan canonical form) as well as applications such as minimization and least squares, data fitting and interpolation, Fourier series, iterations, and dynamics (systems of differential equations).

  • Abstract Algebra

    This course introduces students to the beauty and whimsy of abstraction without losing track of algebra’s practical roots. Using proofs, students learn how to generalize the basic rules of addition and multiplication to objects other than usual numbers and how those rules give structure to collections of objects. Topics include structures such as vector spaces, groups, rings, fields, and their applications to coding theory and public-key cryptography, symmetries, geometric constructions, and Galois theory. 

  • Descriptive & Inferential Statistics

    Statistics is the art and science of collecting, organizing, analyzing, and drawing conclusions from data. Course topics include exploring data, sampling and experimentation, probability and simulation, and statistical inference. Students use technology, investigations, problem-solving, and writing to build conceptual understanding. This course is recommended for those interested in any field that uses data, including the sciences, engineering, social sciences, and business studies.
I’ve wanted to be a math teacher since I was in high school. Math is sometimes thought to be a solemn subject, but I always look for unexpected moments that will captivate the students, or make them laugh. It resets the classroom and it is engaging for all of us.”
