10000 things all ICS students should do before graduating | Tagide - 2 views

  •  
    So I thought I'd compile a list of 1010 10000 things I believe all ICS students should have done (by  themselves) by the time they get their diplomas. With luck, students have come across some of these in courses. Most likely, that won't happen, so students need to make time for extra-curricular activities.

Online Python Tutor - Learn programming by visualizing code execution - 0 views

  •  
    "Online Python Tutor is a free educational tool that helps students overcome a fundamental barrier to learning programming: understanding what happens as the computer executes each line of a program's source code. Using this tool, a teacher or student can write a Python program directly in the web browser and visualize what the computer is doing step-by-step as it executes the program."

Pex4fun, an online lab for APCS - Computer Science Teacher - Thoughts and Information f... - 1 views

  •  
    Are you teaching Advanced Placement Computer Science? Are you looking for supplemental exercises that may help you students with the concepts? If so this announcement may be of interest to you. Pex for Fun has been around for a while offering coding duels in C#, F# and Visual Basic. Recently though it was decided to invest some time, money and effort to adapt some exercises specifically to help learn APCS concepts. Most students find the differences between Java and C# pretty minor at this level so most APCS students will find this doable even if they have only been taught Java previously.

AppInventor:Course Curriculum - Notes - 0 views

  •  
    The two teachers, Betsy and Chinma, have been working together to create a course curriculum that will be implemented in their high school classrooms. Our goal is to expose high students (i.e. CS zero students) to Computer Science using App Inventor. The App Inventor curriculum should excite the students and therefore encourage them to continue studying Computer Science. We hope that this curriculum will become the catalyst that spurs students to attend college and major in Computer Science.

Basics of Computer Science, Animated * Department of Computer Science, The University o... - 0 views

  •  
    One of the difficulties students have in introductory computer science courses is understanding the dynamic complexities of several computer science basics. One reason that students have difficulty grasping these fundamental concepts is that these basics are processes, which textbooks and lectures cannot always adequately demonstrate. In this series of modules...

Tutorials \ Processing.org - 0 views

  •  
    I'm really starting to like what I see in Processing. I think this language will be suitable for the full range of students, from the beginners in ICS2O or ICS3x, to the robotics programmers in TEJ4M (via Arduino). Note that it can create standalone applets or applications, which is appealing to the students.
