We work in collaboration with four Canadian universities, specifically the University of Toronto, to celebrate high school research as a model in Canada and the world.
AP Capstone was developed at the request of higher education professionals who saw a need for a systemic way for high school students to master certain skills prior to University.
Capstone courses develop students’ skills in research, analysis, evidence-based arguments, collaboration, writing, and presenting.
