AP Summer Institute
Since the mid-1990s, Goucher College has partnered with the College Board to provide AP teachers with high-quality training and valuable networking opportunities.
Our APSI is designed for both new and experienced teachers. Teachers participating in an APSI will:
- explore the course framework and exam.
- create effective lesson plans.
- learn to adjust the course pacing for optimal student success.
- gain access to AP Classroom resources such as unit guides, AP teacher community, and the AP question bank.
- apply scoring guidelines from the most recent AP exam to student work.
- engage in lively and meaningful discussions with fellow teachers from across the country.
