What's Going On? April 23rd through April 27th

App Development 1

This week, students will learn how to incorporate multiple screens into our apps.  We will learn how to embed in a navigation controller that allows us to travel between screens.  We will also learn how to create an "alert controller" that allows us to display a pop-up message.

App Development 2

This week, we will continue to look at creating our Ninja game using "Sprite Kit".  By the end of the week, students should have a working "Ninja" app.  This will set us up for our end of unit app challenge: Brick Breaker.



AP Computer Science Principles

We will start off the week by analyzing the work from our practice AP multiple choice exam.  Students will create small study groups to analyze their mistakes so that we can prevent making them on the AP exam.  I will also lead a review to take us through some of the most commonly missed items from the test.During class on Wednesday, students should be submitting their final versions of the AP Performance Tasks.  The official AP Performance Task due date is quickly approaching and late work will not be accepted.  As a reminder, the performance tasks account for 40% of the overall AP score.
Throughout the rest of the week, we will spend some time talking about cybersecurity, the internet, and reviewing some important vocabulary.



Programming the Web 2
This week, students will be working to incorporate JavaScript into a form that we made earlier in the semester.  Students will add code to our form that will automatically add today's date and validate user input.
