Content Update: Big improvements to AP®/College Statistics course
Updated
Hello! I’m Jeff on the math content team here at Khan Academy, and I’m happy to share that we’ve updated our AP®/College Statistics course to make it better than ever. Most of the changes are structural, and we think you’ll appreciate the tweaks!
Here are the highlights of what we did:
- We’ve restructured the course to better align with the official course and exam description from College Board. Previously, this course was aligned in scope with College Board’s official course and exam description for AP® Statistics, but our course units were in a slightly different sequence. This is no longer the case! Our course is now aligned both in scope and sequence with the official course and exam description.
- Our unit names and sequence make it easier than ever to find content that aligns with what you or your students are learning. The names of our units and lessons largely correspond to the names of units and lessons in the course and exam description, so no matter where you are in the course, you’ll be able to find instructional or practice content for any given topic.
- We’ve streamlined the course by moving some prerequisite content to our Get ready for AP® Statistics course. We wanted to keep our AP®/College Statistics course focused on just the topics that are in the course and exam description, while also giving teachers and students a curation of the most important prerequisite content. Get ready for AP® Statistics is the new home for topics that aren’t necessarily in the course and exam description for AP® Statistics, but are foundational to learner success in AP® Statistics.
You can learn anything!
