YR
Course Name: Algebra I
Credit: 1
Grade Placement: 9, 10
Required Prerequisite(s): Eighth grade mathematics
What's Next: Geometry or Geometry Honors
In grades k–8, algebraic reasoning is just one of many mathematical strands studied by students. In this Algebra I course students build on that prior learning with a more focused study of algebraic patterns and representations. This course develops students’ ability to think algebraically and reason symbolically. The primary focal points in Algebra I include the study of linear, quadratic, and exponential functions and their related transformations, equations, and associated solutions.Students will use a variety of representations (concrete, pictorial, numerical, symbolic, graphical, and verbal), tools, and technology to model mathematical situations to solve meaningful problems.
Course: 152031 YR

Grade: 11, 12
Course ID: 154231
YR
Course Name: OnRamps Algebra II
Credit: 1
Grade Placement: 11, 12
Required Prerequisite(s): Algebra I, Geometry (Recommended)
What's Next: AP Precalculus
In this dual enrollment course, students will deepen their critical thinking skills and develop their ability to persist through challenges as they explore function families: linear, absolute value, quadratic, polynomial, radical, rational, exponential, and logarithmic. OnRamps dual enrollment courses meet for one class period five days a week, and students have the option at the conclusion of the course to accept or decline college credit from UT Austin.This course has an enrollment fee due during the fall semester and consists of assessments graded by a UT professor. College credit granted for MATH 1314 (3 credit hours). Students taking Dual Credit Statistics or Precalculus after OnRamps Algebra are advised that these courses include MATH 1314; taking MATH 1314 in both courses could result in a change on your college transcript.If a student takes OnRamps Algebra II and accepts the UT Austin college credit for Math 1314, the student will need to determine if they want to take the college course Math 1314 as a part of Precalculus or Statistics Dual Credit. Taking Math 1314 in both OnRamps and Dual Credit courses could result in a grade change on your college transcript.
