AP Networking Teacher Course Bundle - Complete 4-Unit Curriculum

Everything you need to teach AP Networking, built and classroom ready

The complete teacher bundle for the College Board AP Career Kickstart networking pilot: all 22 topics across 4 units, authored to the official course framework. Decks, guides, tests, and answer keys are done, so your prep time goes to teaching instead of building.

What is included

• 44 slide decks (14 slides each). Every topic ships a teacher edition with full speaker notes and answer reveals, plus a student edition with those stripped out.
• 44 lesson guides. Teacher guides carry answer keys, facilitation notes, timing, and the misconceptions students actually hit. Student guides are un-keyed guided notes.
• 4 unit tests with answer keys. 24 multiple choice questions plus 2 free response prompts per unit, every item tagged to its learning objective and essential knowledge statement.
• 4 scenario performance tasks with scoring rubrics: the Device Recovery Walkthrough, the Lab Network Field Manual, the Game Day Network Blueprint, and the Incident Report and Resilience Plan.
• Gradebook class management. Issue a class code, roster your students, set your own mastery threshold and retry policy, and watch scores land automatically as students work through the online lessons.

The four units

• Unit 1, Managing My Connections. Troubleshooting, connecting and optimizing, and securing a personal device.
• Unit 2, Managing My Shared Connections. Documenting, upgrading, and defending a small office or home network.
• Unit 3, Managing Many Connections. Designing, segmenting, and filtering a multi segment LAN from scratch.
• Unit 4, Managing Our Global Connections. Protocols and the OSI and TCP/IP models, the command line, routing, monitoring, and IPv6.

Interactive labs your students actually use

All 22 topics include a browser based lab that grades itself and reports to your gradebook. Students isolate a fault on a topology strip, assemble an ordered firewall rule set with real first match behavior, read routing tables and traceroute output, and triage intrusion detection alerts. Every one of them shuffles its cases, so no two attempts run in the same order.

Built for how the course is actually taught

Each unit opens with a real world scenario that its topics and performance task hang from. Every unit practices the AP Career Kickstart skills of connecting and configuring, securing, troubleshooting, and collaborating. Students use AI assistants and then verify the output by hand, which is a graded skill in this course rather than an afterthought.
