What's Going On? April 17th through April 21st

Thought for the Week



AP Computer Science Principles

This week, we will spend time reviewing our first AP practice exam and talking about test-taking strategies.  We will also begin our intensive review period leading up to the exam.


App Development 1

This week, our primary focus will be on "Conditionals".  We will spend Monday's class reading about conditionals, recording some notes, and trying out a demo together as a class.  We will spend Tuesday's class period working on a code challenge.  On Thursday we will investigate some gesture recognizers (tap, pan, and swipe).  We will wrap up the week by summarizing what we have learned about conditionals with a technical blog post.




App Development 2

This week, students will work on their summative end-of-unit app challenge called "Za Hunter".  In this challenge, students will use a map to show the user's location and be able to zoom in on that location in the world.  Students will also be able to search the surrounding area for pizza places, which will be identified by a map pin.  When the map pin is tapped, more information about the restaurant can be seen, such as the restaurant's address and phone number.
