AP* Online Classes

As a parent who has reviewed over 5 AP courses, I can highly recommend Mrs. Smith’s AP World History! It was the perfect balance of learning history with creative assignments while doing the work to prepare for the exam. Mrs. Smith was quick to reply to emails and willing to work around travel plans.

File Format Showdown Entry: PDF

During our Unit 2 work with digital information, we learn about different file types, lossy and lossless compression and how to encode images.

We have a "File Format Showdown" in which students must select their favorite file format (within the categories of text, image, audio, video, or "other") and argue for it with an infographic, a one-pager written response, and an in-class debate.

One excellent infographic example is displayed here with the student's permission.
