What's Going On? November 9th through November 13th

 AP Computer Science A

This week we will continue our study of conditional statements based on Boolean Conditions.  Monday's class will be devoted to recapping all we have learned so far this unit via a "One Pager" assignment.  On Tuesday, we will revisit input validation and testing.  The rest of the week will be devoted to our summative programming project #5 and our formative review exercises. 

App Development

Monday's class will be devoted to wrapping up our Summative Multiply App.  Students will be uploading their finished products to Google Classroom by the end of the class period.  On Tuesday, we will jump into our next unit.  We will start with our pre-unit hackwich, "Commission".  Once this is done, we will move on to "functions".  Students will practice decoding the function headers for existing functions and will learn how to write and call their own custom functions.  Along with our functions lessons, we will have a technical blog post as well as a formative assessment on Blackboard.

Programming the Web 1

This week we will move into our ninth unit of the year.  In this unit, we will focus on floating and positioning elements within a web site.  We will have live teams meetings during our virtual learning days on Monday and Tuesday to talk about some of the important concepts as well as complete some practice examples.  Along with this week, students will read chapter 15 in the textbook and complete the reading guide.  Students will also have Web Assignments 9A and 9B to complete.  These assignments are tutorial-style and step-by-step instructions can be found within our textbook.  We will finish the week by submitting our web assignments and completing our lesson 9 review questions.
