• Web 2.0 Integrating Technology

  • Teacher: Shelli Casner

  Grade levels: 11-12

  Credit Offering: 1/2 Credit

  Web 2.0 is a category of new tools and technologies created around the idea that people who consume media, access the internet, and use the Web shouldn’t passively absorb what is available; rather they should be active contributors, helping customize media and technology for their own purposes as well as those of their communities. Emerging technologies will foster digital learning by empowering students to create, share, and participate in a virtual community using the web as a platform. Web 2.0 applications will consist of, but not be limited to blogs, podcast, story-booking, virtual portfolios, wikis, RSS feeds, and media sharing.

  Honors Geometry is an accelerated course designed for those students preparing for higher level mathematics and/or considering a post graduate math/science career. This course differs from the Geometry course in pacing and depth of content. The Honors Geometry course will emphasize the concepts of geometry that are assessed on the 11^th grade PSSA test and required to meet PA state standards. Topics include, but are not limited to, measurement, angles, logic, triangles, polygons, circles, area, volume, vectors and transformations. A scientific calculator is required for this course.

  Note: It is possible to take both Honors Geometry and Honors Algebra II concurrently with teacher approval.
