Online Algebra I Course: Providing Access to Algebra I for Grade 8 Students in Schools That Do Not Typically Offer the Course.

The program is an online Algebra I course, which is intended to target students who are considered algebra ready (AR) but attend schools that do not typically offer Algebra I in grade 8. The online course is a full-year course that covers the typical content of a high school Algebra I course, including symbols and expressions, linear equations, quadratic equations, functions, and the algebra of polynomials. The course is divided into two parts, Algebra IA and Algebra IB, with each part designed to be equivalent to a semester in a traditional middle or high school Algebra I course. The course is delivered through an online course management system, which provides students with access to course materials, including interactive lessons, practice problems, quizzes, and exams. The course also includes a messaging system that allows students to communicate with their online teacher. The online teacher is responsible for grading written assignments, reviewing student progress, and providing feedback to students. The course is designed to be completed in 32-34 weeks, assuming 40-50 minutes of instruction per day. Students who complete the course are expected to have a thorough understanding of algebraic concepts and be prepared to take advanced mathematics courses in high school.
