Exploring Computer Science: 4-Week Course Program

Exploring Computer Science is a hands-on introduction to computer architecture, programming, and using the computer as a creative tool. The class is taught in the computer lab and is project-based, rather than textbook-based. The class is divided into six basic units. Units consist of: a survey of computer architecture and human/computer interaction, algorithmic problem-solving, web site development, program design and development using Scratch, data analysis, and robotics. Each unit uses a series of projects of increasing complexity to introduce, refine, and integrate programming and development concepts, culminating with a "capstone" projects as a unit final.
