Course Overview
Summer courses at One Schoolhouse are fully online, fully asynchronous, and class-paced. For more information about what this means click here.
This course introduces students to the concepts and tools used to collect, organize, analyze, and draw conclusions from data. Students receive instruction in each of the following competencies: exploring data, sampling and experimentation, anticipating patterns with probability and simulation, and statistical inference. Students learn how to articulate methodology, data descriptions, calculations, and conclusions, and to write analytically in context. Students develop knowledge through experiential activities that challenge them to design and administer studies as well as tabulate and analyze results from surveys and experiments. Students often work in small collaborative groups to explore problems and share ideas. Active participation in the form of individual and group projects, peer review of student work, and discussion board conversations is key to student success. Students apply a powerful skill set effectively in new and unanticipated situations, explore AP®-style free response questions and applications, take AP®-style assessments, and prepare for the AP® Statistics Exam.

Summer Courses
Summer courses are for-credit opportunities for ambitious students to get a jump on the next academic year. Students participating in these courses should plan to devote 20 hours per week for eight weeks to their course. Students will receive grades and comments in these classes, which are the equivalent of year-long, high-school level courses. Because of the pacing and intensity of for-credit summer courses, there is little flexibility; students must be available and have internet access for all eight weeks of the course.
