AP Physics 1
Course Description:
AP Physics 1: Algebra-Based is the first year of a two year program that combined with AP Physics 2: Algebra-Based, replaces the former one-year AP Physics B course. The AP Physics 1 and 2 courses focus on the big ideas typically included in the first and second semesters of an algebra-based, introductory college-level physics sequence and provide students with enduring understandings to support future advanced course work in the sciences. Through inquiry-based learning, students will develop critical thinking and reasoning skills, as defined by the AP Science Practices.
