There will be two workshops given by Daniel Teague (North Carolina School of Science and Mathematics, Second Vice President of the MAA) intended for high school teachers and other interested faculty
Mathematical Modeling in AP Calculus
(Friday afternoon)
Participants will work through several mathematical models that can enhance both AB and BC calculus courses. Other models will be discussed that can be used as projects that pull together many topics from the course for use after the exam. Models include real-world max-min problems, applications of area, and modeling with simple differential equations.
Regression Analysis in AP Statistics
(Saturday morning)
This workshop will present the important aspects of regression analysis in the introductory statistics course. Re-expression and residual analysis, as well as inference for regression will be illustrated by examples. Important features of the mathematical underpinnings will also be considered. The workshop presenter was on the committee that wrote the AP curriculum and served on the Test Development Committee for 5 years.
