AP® Chemistry

All-Gender Course; Prerequisite - Successful completion of one year of high school laboratory science or permission from the administration; Full-year course
COURSE DESCRIPTION
AP® Chemistry is an introductory college-level chemistry course. The course is designed for students interested in an upper-level science course or planning to enter life science or pre-med programs in college. The goal of the course is to develop an understanding of chemistry through inquiry-based investigations. Students explore atomic, molecular, and ionic compound structure and properties; intermolecular forces; chemical reactions; kinetics; thermodynamics and its applications; equilibrium; and acids and bases. By the end of this course, students will be able to design experiments, graph and analyze data, support claims with evidence, explain the structure-function relationship of molecules and compounds, and balance chemical equations.  This course is intended to prepare students for the AP® Chemistry Exam in May.

WHAT STUDENTS DO
Learning is an active process at One Schoolhouse. Students design, create and apply. And, they engage with classmates and connect with their teachers through discussions, video conferences, and projects. Specifically, in this class students will:
  • Set goals that drive their learning. Students reflect regularly on their growth, and meet on video chat with their online teacher to review progress towards their goals.
  • Have choice in how they learn new content and practice new skills. Students are given agency to determine the best ways for them to learn.
  • Apply what they are learning to the real world. Learning is meaningful and connects to concepts outside the classroom.
  • Practice constructive engagement in a diverse and changing world. Students interact with classmates from across the country and around the world.
  • Gain academic maturity. Online learning takes greater discipline and independence than a traditional face-to-face classroom. Teachers support students to build this skill.
COURSE APPROVAL
​One Schoolhouse is fully accredited with the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools and the Western Association of Schools and Colleges through December 1, 2025; we are an approved online publisher for the University of California.
