Southern Methodist University, in cooperation with The College Board,
is pleased to offer an Advanced Placement Program* Summer Institute in June 2009. New
and experienced AP and Pre-AP teachers spend a week exploring the latest
methods and curriculum topics in Advanced Placement Program* education.
Participants conclude their Institute experience at SMU renewed in their
enthusiasm for the AP Program* and equipped with new ideas and resource
materials to use in their classrooms.
All of SMU's AP* Summer Institute classes are taught by award-winning master teachers, and many are supplemented by special lectures delivered by guest speakers from the SMU faculty and public and private secondary institutions. All classes other than Computer Science are taught at SMU-in-Legacy, a University satellite facility located in Plano, a northern suburb of Dallas. The facility boasts modern classroom amenities and close proximity to Plano restaurants, hotels, and shopping districts. Dallas, located a short drive away, is a center of finance and technology and is rich in the cultural arts of music, theater, film, and dance.
