AP Computer Science
Summer Institute - June 23-28, 2013
Western Kentucky
University -- Bowling Green, Kentucky
Focus
on the essential elements to starting and maintaining a successful
Computer Science Program. Learn ways to motivate students to
participate and learn the content using tools like Scratch, Alice, and
Jeroo. This hands-on institute will build from the basic Computer
Science skills with more time spent on the explanation and elaboration
of topics. Advanced Placement* Computer Science topics such as Looping,
Decision-Making, List Processing, String Manipulation, Inheritance, and
Algorithmic Development will be covered. The GridWorld Case Study will
be demonstrated as a tool to enhance the teaching of all AP* Computer
Science topics and will serve as a platform for game creation.
