This course is designed as an introduction to software development using JavaScript. In this course, students will learn the fundamentals of three languages used to create web applications: JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. In addition, students will understand foundational computer science topics including types, operations, objects, methods, conditionals, and loops which provide a construct to understand software development and programming. Through interactive coding examples and activities, students will practice the coding concepts explored in the course and build multiple projects using Codio, a browser-based online coding platform.

In this introductory course, students become familiar with the basic principles of a personal computer, including the internal hardware, operating system, and software applications. Students gain practice in using key applications such as word processing, spreadsheet, and presentation software, as well as understand social and ethical issues around the Internet, information, and security.

Introduction to Java Programming 1 is a CodeHS course that teaches students the basics of object-oriented programming with a focus on problem solving and algorithm development. Students learn basic Java, methods, data structures, classes, and object-oriented programming in this course. Lessons consist of video tutorials, short quizzes, example programs to explore, and written programming exercises, adding up to over 100 hours of hands-on programming practice in total. Several units have free response questions that have students consider the applications of programming and incorporate examples from their own lives. At the end of each unit, students take a summative multiple choice unit quiz that assesses their knowledge of the Java concepts covered in the unit. Included in each lesson is a formative short multiple choice quiz.

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. 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.

TCH220E2-PBL Computer Science Principles is a CodeHS course that introduces students to the foundational concepts of computer science and explores the impact computing and technology have on our society. The course utilizes a project-based learning approach. With a unique focus on creative problem solving and real-world applications, the CodeHS 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.

This introductory design course is for students who want to create compelling, professional-looking graphic designs and photos. Students learn the basics of composition, color, and layout through the use of hands-on projects that allow them to use their creativity while developing important foundational skills. They use GIMP software to create a graphic design portfolio with a wide variety of projects involving the mastery of technical topics, such as working with layers and masks, adding special effects, and effectively using typefaces to create visual impact. The projects help students develop the skills they need to create and edit images of their own.

This course is offered over a condensed 4 week term.
