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.

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

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

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

To Be Successful in an Online Course, You Should be independent
and self-motivated learners. have access to a computer with a fast,
reliable internet connection. know how to perform basic computer
functions (saving and attaching files, creating folders), utilize
skills learned in Computer Applications class, and navigate the
internet (using search engines, entering passwords). be able to
communicate effectively and clearly using email and discussion
forums. be disciplined in setting and maintaining a schedule to
complete work and provide timely responses to other students and
the instructor, even when there are distractions online (checking
personal email, perusing social media) or at home (television,
family, social activities). be proactive in asking appropriate
questions when assignments, concepts or homework are unclear. More
