AP Capstone Program
OVERVIEW
↣ AP Capstone™ is a College Board program that equips you with the
independent research, collaborative teamwork, and communication
skills that are increasingly valued by colleges. It cultivates curious,
independent, and collaborative scholars and prepares them to make
logical, evidence-based decisions.
↣ AP Capstone is comprised of two AP courses — AP Seminar and AP
Research — and is designed to complement and enhance the
discipline-specific study in other AP courses. If you are a current AP
student, this course will help you to master the argument-based writing
skills that the AP Capstone program develops.
↣ Explore topics such as education, wealth and poverty, or freedom from
multiple perspectives (e.g. scientific, economic, political, cultural).
