APES Objectives – Student Guide

Summary

The Student Guide and its associated handouts serve as a personal study tool for students taking the AP Environmental Science course. The handouts help students organize their studies by providing a checklist of all the essential knowledge and learning objectives for each unit. Students are instructed to use a simple marking system (✔️, ✖️, ❓) to track their confidence with each objective after lessons or readings. This system helps students identify areas where they need additional help and allows them to prepare for class, office hours, and tests by focusing on their marked questions or areas of confusion. By consistently using the handout, students can build confidence and ensure they are well-prepared for both unit tests and the AP Exam.
