Success Series Helps Students Prepare for Exams

The Success Series is a collection of multi-media lessons, taught by master Wake County Public School System teachers, in Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra 2, AP Statistics, and AP Calculus. Students can access the Success Series on DVD through their math teacher or download segments from the WCPSS website.

Each course set contains a series of lessons that are aligned to the North Carolina Standard Course of Study. The lessons on each Success Series DVD provide additional support for students who may need extra help with a concept or may have been absent. The typical lesson in the Success Series lasts from approximately 6 minutes to just under 15 minutes. The lessons afford students the opportunity to review concepts prior to a test or to acquire additional examples for a deeper understanding of concepts covered during the regular school day. This individualized approach to content review enables students to focus on areas of greatest need.

Currently, the Success Series contains lessons for math courses with End-of-Course exams or Advanced Placement exams. However, anticipate lessons in Biology, United States History, and Civics and Economics to be available by the end of the school year.
