AP Computer Science A

Now that the AP Exam is complete, we are going to spend some time talking about some of the current issues surrounding programming and social media.  This week, we will view two films: Coded Bias and The Social Dilemma.  These two films will help us to talk about some of the current events and psychology surrounding computer science.  These films will help us to bring awareness to our final project where students will use AI (Artificial Intelligence) within a program.






App Development 2

This week, students will begin their final "Build Your Own App" project.  The beginning of this week will be focused on the planning and designing of our app.  We will implement the "Agile Development" philosophy that includes designing our app features in stages so that we always have a working product.




Programming the Web 2

This week, students will be introduced to the HTML5 Canvas environment.  The focus of the week will be on the drawing tools.  Students will learn the basics of drawing during class on Monday and Tuesday.  These newly learned skills will be applied to our "Face" creation program.  We will wrap up the week by showcasing our creations and diving into a few more drawing tools.
