IT Apps is a STEM class where you get to explore different career interests while learning real-world skills. Most of the time (about 90%), you’ll be working with a partner—because teamwork, collaboration, and cooperation are a big part of what makes this class successful.
We will also do some coding in either block (javascript) or python language. This will also be a partner activity. We will be using Minecraft Education, CodeCombat and possibly Code.org.
Over 40 years of PITSCO experience; this unique hands on approach to learning and a focus on careers does not disappoint.
16 workstations provide voice and choice for all students in this hands-on portion of our IT Applications class.
