Computer Programming / Coding
Course Description
Students will learn to design, code, and test their own programs while applying mathematical concepts. Teachers introduce concepts and problem-solving skills through a programming language such as C, C++, C#, Java, Python, or Visual Basic. Advanced topics may include sequential files, arrays
Grading
Daily Work (60% of Semester Grade): Tasks completed throughout the semester to develop skills
Assessments (40% of Semester Grade): Quizzes, Tests, and Projects completed throughout the semester
Semester Test (15% of Final Grade): End of Semester Assessment
Classroom Expectations
1. Be Respectful (treat other the way you want to be treated, show kindness and consideration, accept others for who they are)
2. Be Reasonable (ask for permission and keep me informed)
3. Be Responsible (be in control of your own behavior, do your part when working with others, bring MacBook to class, and have your work completed on time)
