Saint Joseph Street • Rapid City, SD 57701-3995 Phone: (605) 394-6082/2554 • Fax: (605) 394-6177 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE June 26, 2003 Contact: Steve Buchholz, Public Information Manager, 394-6082 Local Teacher Completes Calculus Institute Timothy Hoard, a teacher at Sundance High School, recently completed the Advanced Placement Calculus Institute for high school teachers held at the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology. The Institute trained and motivated teachers to prepare students for Advanced Placement classes and college-level work. Teachers received the tools to teach their students to stretch their minds and succeed in challenging courses such as Advanced Placement Calculus. The course was designed to help teachers return to their classrooms prepared to show their students the wonders of math – not only what it can do, but what students can do when they master math concepts. AP Calculus classes help students because the course consists of a full high school academic year of work that is comparable to calculus courses in colleges and universities. Students who take an AP course in calculus can seek college credit, college placement, or both, from colleges and universities. The South Dakota School of Mines and Technology, a science and engineering university in Rapid City, S.D., hosted the Institute. Photo Cutline: Timothy Hoard accepts a certificate of completion from Dr. Karen Whitehead, South Dakota Tech's vice president for Academic Affairs, and from Mark Meuser, the Institute instructor. #30# SDSM&T News 501 E.
