Though Geometry is an ancient mathematical discipline, French scholars Ren Descartes and Pierre de Fermat forged a new synthesis of algebra and geometry in the 17th Century that changed mathematics forever. Analytic Geometry strives to give geometric interpretations/context to algebraic operations and to give algebraic procedure/ algorithms to geometric problems. These scholars (and those who later built on their work) gave us the two- dimensional Cartesian coordinate system, modern algebraic and exponential notation, and a new view of functions and graphs. This reformulation of Geometry set the stage for the creation of Calculus. http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Ren%C3%A9_Descartes#mediaviewer/File:F rans_Hals_-_Portret_van_Ren%C3%A9_Descartes.jpg http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Pierre_de_Fermat#mediaviewer/File :Pierre_de_Fermat.jpg Use the Home button to return to first slide (J.

Attendance and participation in each module of this course is crucial. To succeed in this class, regular attendance is expected. Be sure to establish a work schedule, log in regularly, and meet deadlines and due dates. If you must miss class for an extended period of time, contact me in advance to make arrangements. Keep in mind that the course management system tracks your activity within the course. This includes the number of times you log in. I will run reports to monitor your weekly online activity. Students who fail to log in or meet deadlines will be contacted by the instructor and parent/guardian contact will be made as well. Use the Home button to return to first slide Course Policies

Slide 19

You will be assessed in a variety of ways: sample problems, pair problems, quizzes, participation in discussions, graded assignments, and projects. Rubrics are used to evaluate discussions and projects and are posted to Moodle for student review prior to the start of an activity. The course schedule is posted on Moodle. Modules become available on established dates. Deadlines are established for submitting assignments. Scores are reduced by 50% when work is turned in late. 98-100A+ 93-97A 90-92A- 87-89B+ 83-86B 80-82B- 77-79C+ 73-76C 70-72C- 67-69D+ 63-66D 60-62D- 0-59FAILING Use the Home button to return to first slide Course Policies Kutztown Area High School Grading System

Having academic integrity means being honest and responsible in your studies. You are expected to honor this concept in your participation in this online class. This means that all academic work is done by the student and the student will properly cite the resources used in completing work. You are expected to contact the instructor if questions arise about how to cite sources for projects in this class. Plagiarism is defined as the unauthorized use or close imitation of the language and thoughts of another author and the representation of them as one's own original work. This may also include when a student copies and pastes directly from another source and passes it off as his or her own, or if a student fails to cite a source after loosely summarizing its content in his or her own words. If evidence of academic misconduct on assignments, projects, or quizzes/exams is established or if work submitted by a student is found to be profane or unduly disrespectful of others, the following consequences apply: The student earns zero on the assignment, project or exam. The student and his or her parent/guardian are contacted. An administrator of the Kutztown Virtual Academy is notified of the misconduct. Use the Home button to return to first slide Course Policies
