“Five, four, three, two, one—rest.” You’ve learned what it looks like to work one-on-one with clients as a sports medicine professional, and now it’s time to focus on the group. In this course, you will be introduced to teaching group exercise classes and providing rehabilitation services to clients facing injury and disease. You will also learn about laws that govern the work of sports medicine professionals, business concerns like insurance and staffing, and what you need to consider if you start your own fitness facility. It looks like it’s time for the next set! Let’s get started!

This course is a Project Based Learning course (PBL). Are you fascinated with how machines work? Robots are machines, and they are all around us, from helping doctors in surgeries to helping to keep our homes clean. Explore the physics, mechanics, motion, and the engineering design and construction aspects used to develop robots. Learn how models are created through both sketches and software. Discover STEM careers and the education needed to enter this high-demand field.

Mobile Apps is a CodeHS course that teaches students to create mobile apps using React Native, a popular platform-agnostic framework developed by Facebook and used by successful tech companies including Airbnb, Facebook, Instagram, Tesla, and more. Students will design and build applications to run smartphones and will use the latest tools and technologies available for mobile app development. At the end of each unit, students take a summative multiple choice unit quiz that assesses their knowledge of the concepts covered in the unit. Included in each lesson is a formative short multiple choice quiz.

TCH240E2 Virtual Reality is a Code HS course that teaches students the basics of building virtual reality worlds using HTML and the A-Frame JavaScript Library. Through this course, students will build their own virtual reality worlds that are compatible with VR devices, including smartphone VR headsets. Every lesson is made up of short video tutorials, example programs, quizzes, programming exercises, challenge problems, and unit tests.

TCH521 Data Structures in C++ 2 focuses on different ways to store data, beyond traditional variables and lists. In this course, students will learn about advanced data structures such as maps, sets, etc. while applying them in larger, real-world assignments and projects. The Data Structures in C++ 2 course is designed for students that have previously completed Data Structures in C++ 1. The course utilizes a blended classroom approach. The content is fully web-based, with students writing and running code in the browser. Teachers utilize tools and resources provided by CodeHS to leverage time in the classroom and give focused 1-on-1 attention to students. Each unit of the course is broken down into lessons. Lessons consist of tutorials, short quizzes, example programs to explore, and written programming exercises, adding up to over 100 hours of hands-on programming practice and projects in total. Each unit ends with a comprehensive unit test that assesses a student's mastery of the material from that unit. Students write and run C++ programs in the browser using the CodeHS editor.

TCH520 Data Structures in C++ 1 focuses on different ways to store data, beyond traditional variables and lists. In this course, students will learn about advanced data structures, such as queues, while applying them in larger, real-world assignments and projects. The Data Structures in C++ 1 course is designed for students that have previously completed a full year computer science course, such as AP CSA. While C++ is used as the language for the course, the focus of the course is on understanding and applying advanced data structures. Prior C++ knowledge is not a prerequisite, however students should have a working knowledge of basic computer science concepts such as variables, control structures, and functions/methods in at least one programming language.
