Get Ready for AP® Computer Science Principles

10th session Sat May 11, 7:00 PM

This series is intended as a preview for anyone planning on taking AP® Computer Science Principles next year. No prior computing knowledge is expected, but a background in Algebra I/Integrated Math I is expected and needed. We will be going over every major topic assessed on the exam.
﻿
This is going to be sort of an "enrichment" class, not in the way SHW has their encrichment subworld, but as something that gives you an opportunity to explore the topic of computing before actually being enrolled in one.

9th Grade Reading

10th session Sun May 12, 8:00 PM

Each week, we will go over reading skills that you are expected to have developed by the end of your 9th grade English class. The skills we be taught at an honors level, but at the pacing of a regular class.
﻿
We will be using both nonfiction and fiction pieces of literature equally as much.

AP Computer Science A Exam Only (2024-25)

Starts Fri Jun 21, 12:00 AM

This series is still appropriate for students taking an actual AP Computer Science A course, but will assume you are not taking an actual course
﻿
Thinking of taking the AP exam next year and don't want to/can't take the course? You've found the perfect series!
﻿
This series will be treated as close to a formal class as possible; the only difference being that it follows a mastery learning method (meaning that it allows ALL students to be caught up with everyone else at once) as opposed to taditional learning (where everyone must follow the same pace as everyone else). This means that several quizzes and tests will be assigned throughout the series. And in order to execute this idea of a formal yet mastery learning class, I will only allow us to advance to next concepts if everyone scores a 90% or higher on these assessments to make the series as easy sailing as possible.
﻿
Self-studying for an AP exam requires a lot discipline, and so you are expected to be prepared to attend the 5 sessions a week (45 minutes each session), although it's fully expected that you'll miss a few sessions here and there.
﻿
Because of this mastery learning method, you will be withdrawn if you still cannot score over a 90% on an assessment assigned over a week ago. If this does happen, i might make another series dedicated to those who've been withdrawn from the series so that you can catchup on your own pace without the guilt of slowing everyone else down.
﻿
I can always schedule a Catchup/Office hours session by request if you were absent for a session/need extra help with a topic.

Financial Literacy

Ended Mon, Mar 25, 2024

How can I choose a good college? How does the process of paying taxes work? What's the process for buying a house? What types of insurance are there, which do I need, and how do they work?
﻿
This series is here to answer all these questions, and of course, even more! As a teenager approaching adulthood, all these things about taking loans and taxes and insurance can all seem extremely overwhelming. But by the end of this series, you will come out having a great understanding of everything you need to know in regards to financial literacy.

Artificial Intelligence for Education

Ended Fri, Jan 26, 2024

I belive Artificial Intellgence has the ability to transform education for the better, whether you use it to help you with your school classes, or use it as a tutor for your SHW sessions.
﻿
We are going to first learn how AI works in general, before delving into the ethics surrounding its use so as to be able to understand how to use AI as a student and a tutor.

Get ready for AP® Precalculus

Ended Tue, Feb 13, 2024

Each week, we will go review all the prerequisite topics you need to know before starting an AP Precalculus course. This series will be developed as if you are entirely new to the topic we are going over, so it may feel a little slow at some points throughout.
﻿
You are expected to be currently enrolled in Algebra 2, Integrated Math III, an equivalent course, or higher-level course.
﻿
﻿All topics covered in each session are flexible in a first come, first serve basis.

High School Macroeconomics

Ended Sat, Feb 17, 2024

Are you taking a regular/honors (fit for both) macroeconomics course, taking the AP course and want to review the basics? Perhaps you are simply just interested in learning about macroeconomics but not planning on taking the course, or planning on taking a future economics course.  In any case, you are in the perfect place!
﻿
This series will go a little fast as it is for the most part intended to act as a supplement to a high school macroeconomics, not a formal course. I will cover everything typically required in a formal course, but won't dwell on the topics for too long, unless they're short.
﻿
You are expected to have completed a course in Algebra I or an equivalent course.

Algebra I Custom Practice Questions

Ended Wed, Jan 31, 2024

Each week, we'll try some questions from all of Algebra I. Your sets of questions will be tailored to your individual performances. I.e. your set of question one week will reflect how well you did in previous sets. Answer key will be shared at the end of each session.
﻿
I will share your skill results and recommendations at the start of every session, but I will likely not go over any questions as this series is intended to focus on you just understanding where your skill set is at. However, if time allows at the end, I can go over any questions you'd like an explanation to.

Pre-Algebra Cumulative Review

Ended Fri, Dec 8, 2023

Each week, we'll go over several questions of varying difficulty, with each session expanding over more topics as you progress through your maths course (hence, "cumulative). As we progress through the series, the questions will become more and more tailored to your own skillset, having you focus on questions based on how well you do with a skill, and how important it will be for future maths courses.

Big History

Ended Sun, Oct 8, 2023

"Big History examines our past, explains our present, and imagines our future. It's a story about us. An idea that arose from a desire to go beyond specialized and self-contained fields of study to grasp history as a whole. This growing, multi-disciplinary approach is focused on high school students, yet designed for anyone seeking answers to the big questions about the history of our Universe." -OER Project

We will be using Google Docs for the articles used in this series. Regular sessions will not include sparse check questions, but rather in the reviews. Talking out loud instead of using chat is preferrable and more convinient, although it is up to you. Cameras are completely optional.

This series will cover the NJ standards for 4th-8th grade math (minus the geometry and statistics) by reviewing concepts form 4th-6th grade as well as introducing concepts you'll learn in 7th-8th grade to get you prepared for future algebra classes. It is designed for both: people who struggled with math in the past and need a bit of a helping hand to guide them throughout the school year and build confidence, and people who want to get a headstart in Pre-algebra (or 7th-8th grade math).

You will all be given a Virtual Notebook for all important notes, and a Virtual Workbook for problems we'll work on during the sessions (both in the form of Slides). Talking out loud instead of using chat is preferrable and more convinient, but it's completely up to you. Having the camera on or off doesn't matter. We will play a review game at the end of each regular session if time allows.
