Welcome to AP CSP
Welcome to AP CSP
Assalaam Wa'alikum students of Oregon Islamic Academy,
My name is Ms. Najwan, teacher at Bright Horizon Academy, the only Islamic school in San Diego, California. I teach High School Maths, Computers, Quran and Art as well as coach for Robotics and Science Fair. I have been at BHA for the past 13 years. This year, I will your teacher for the AP Computer Principles class and I will be teaching this class to BHA students as well as OIA students. I look forward to this wonderful partnership with our two schools and I look forward to meeting each of you.
Introduction
Introduction
With a unique focus on creative problem solving and real-world applications, the AP Computer Science Principles course gives students the opportunity to explore several important topics of computing using their own ideas and creativity, use the power of computing to create artifacts of personal value, and develop an interest in computer science that will foster further endeavors in the field.
