CSP6310 – Computer Science Essentials - Intro to Programming

· Semester – 0.5 credit - Grades 9, 10, 11, 12

· Selection Criteria: Algebra 1 CP concurrently or completion of Algebra 1

· Fee: none

Students will be introduced to the Python® programming language in the collaborative Cloud9 development environment. In this unit, students will continue to build on coding fundamentals as they apply the same coding concepts, computational thinking practices, and development processes.  Whether creating an app, a website, or a physical computing device, students will apply computational thinking practices and a strategic development process to create computational artifacts that solve problems and create value for others. Students will collaborate the way computing professionals do as they pursue solutions to authentic needs.
