What's Going On? March 8th through March 12th

 Thought for the Week

Modified Schedule for the Week 

Our sophomores and juniors will take the ACT on Tuesday, March 9th.  Because of this, we will run a modified schedule.  Monday will be a "Tuesday-style" schedule.  On Tuesday, only sophomores and juniors will report to school.  Freshmen and Seniors will have the day off.  The rest of the week, will run as normal.

AP Computer Science A

We will start off this week with our summative assessment on unit 8: Designing Classes, Inheritance, and Interfaces.  Students will also have their summative programming project #8 due on this day.  For the rest of the week, students will investigate our second lab of the year.  The "Data Lab" will allow students to learn about the importance of data in making decisions.  Students will also learn how to setup and use a third-party library and how to use the data once it has been read in a program.  

App Development 2

This week, we will finish our discussion on Table Views and learn how to modify and delete contents within the view.  After this, we will learn about "persistence" in data.  This means that we will learn about how we can save some basic information and recall it the next time the app runs.

Programming the Web 2

This week, we will spend some time applying our newly-learned knowledge on how to organize information into a basic table.  Students will spend Monday's class creating a table using some of the techniques we learned about last week.  At the end of the week, we will dive into forms.  Forms provide a way for us to get information from a computer user.  (Think: entering your information when you want to purchase a product from a website).  Students will have the opportunity to put their skills to the test on Friday when they create a basic 10-question survey.
