Key Points

    • Boundless textbooks are intended for introductory college courses, making them easily adjustable to fit the syllabi of AP courses.
    • Boundless' modular structure also allows for our material to be used outside of AP courses, as college-level material can be removed to keep a book appropriate for high school classrooms.
    • Using the Flesch-Kincaid readability tests, Boundless texts can be adjusted to the reading level of any grade.
    • Boundless provides an affordable resource for educators and students, even at the high school level.

Term

Boundless in the AP Classroom

Boundless textbooks are designed with introductory college classes in mind. In the high school setting, this neatly translates to AP-level classes, which are intended to serve as equivalent to first-year university courses. Boundless is an excellent resource for educators looking for an affordable, college-quality resource for their students. 

At the same time Boundless' modular structure allows high school teachers to modify content to more precisely align with the needs of an AP test. Boundless has broad, but thorough coverage of a variety of AP subjects that are already at the reading and content level that these classes are designed to meet.

Reading Level

Boundless tracks the reading level of all our content. Using the Flesch-Kincaid readability tests, each content module is assigned a score that corresponds to a certain grade level. With this, teachers are able to confirm whether our material is of a suitable reading level for their classrooms. In addition, Boundless can adjust the reading level of a book upon request. 

Offline Access

While Boundless at its core is a digital and interactive product, Boundless is committed to making sure students can access our material even without internet. If internet access is a concern, we can generate PDFs or ePubs of our content upon request. 

Access to Boundless

Boundless is also happy to work with school districts to sell access codes and prevent costs from filtering down to students. No matter what age, Boundless believes that students deserve affordable access to high-quality education resources.
