Introduction to Computer Science

Course Code 527000

Elective Introduction to Computer Science is the first standalone computer science course in the LCPS Program of Studies. Students will primarily utilize block-based programming to develop projects in order to think creatively, communicate clearly, use technologies fluently, and collaborate effectively. Students will study the history of computers and computer science, with a focus on the impact of Virginians in addition to building additional programming skills within the framework of computer science principles. Students will explore and create computer programs, facilitate reasoning and problem solving, and verify solutions with computer science tools that facilitate design, analysis, and implementation of computer programs.

Computer Science Foundations

Course Code 527100

Elective The Computer Science Foundations course provides students with an introduction to text-based programming with a goal of familiarizing students in developing and executing computer programs. Students will be introduced to several text-based programming languages with an emphasis on computer programming within the context of broader concepts of computer science. Languages include but are not limited to HTML, Python, and JavaScript
