I will be sending out assignments on Google Classroom for the students to complete. There will be tutorial videos to go with the assignments. Students without internet will have the same lessons and videos sent to them on a flash drive.

Google Classroom, Email

One lesson a week is the recommended pace.

Due: Any time before the end of the semester.

The student groups will continue to work on their project and presentation. Students should continue to fill out their daily log sheet, agile and burndown chart, test their prototype, modifications needed to project, expert feedback, and attend. weekly virtual team meeting. When the project and presentation are completed they will present their project virtually.

Google Classroom, Email, Google Drive (Docs, Presentation, etc.), Google hangouts meetings

The presentation is due before the end of the school year

The students will continue their exploration of digital circuits but will do so using the on line version of multisim called multisimLive. We will be finishing our asynchronous counter unit with the now serving circuit. We will then move on to synchronous counters with a final project in that unit called the 60 second timer. We will finish out the year learning about state machines. with a phone number machine and a toll booth machine.

I will put preferred due dates in google classroom but each student works at their own pace.

When they have all projects completed satisfactorily they have completed the course.

**If they are taking this class as dual credit through WSU they will have a final to complete.

Computer Science Principles

Since the number 1 most used coding language in the world continues to be python and this is the language we have been working on the most over the last 2 years we will finish out the year focusing on it. Each week I will post 1 or 2 practice problems in google classroom for students to work through and solve using python. 1 will be required and if I post a 2nd it will be for those that want extra practice. These problems will be designed to take about 30-60 minutes to solve.

Also, one of the fastest growing job markets in computer science in the world is machine learning and artificial intelligence. For this reason we will finish out the year with 3 machine learning projects that will utilize python. There will be a beginner project, an intermediate project, and an advanced project.

Google Classroom

The python practice problems are due at the end of each week. I will have preferred due dates on the projects but each student works at their own rate .

Beginner project April 9

Intermediate project April 24

Advanced project May 8

Since the number 1 most used coding language in the world continues to be python and this is the language we have been working on much of the year, and THE ONE THAT MOST OF YOU, UNDERSTANDABLY, STILL STRUGGLE THE MOST WITH, and the language we use the most in Computer Science Principles, it is going to be our focus for the rest of the year.

Each week I will post 2 practice problems in google classroom for you to work through and solve using python. 1 will be required and the other will be for those that want extra practice. These problems will be designed to take about 30-60 minutes to solve.

I will also post an assignment from codecademy each week or 2 for you to work through for extra practice and to continue your quest to master python.

Google Classroom

The practice problems are due at the end of each week. I will have suggested due dates for codecademy assignments and projects but each student works at their own pace
