AP Summer Institute #2 is history and it was a blast as well!
\nThe workshop started on June 27 and ran for five days.
\nWestern Kentucky University was an awesome host and I hope to be back in 2012!<\/p>\n
We covered tons of material, including Scratch, Jeroo, GridWorld, and lots of Java. We discussed teaching with Codes and Ciphers<\/a>, teaching List Processing using multiple environments, and using games to teach Object-Oriented Programming.<\/p>\n Attendees came all of the way from Tennessee, Alabama, Hawaii, Connecticut, Illinois, and Ohio. We had a submarine-pilot and an X-Factor finalist in our midst as well as a former standup comedian. It was an awesome crew of people and it was nice to get to know them all. One guy was a little on the shifty side, but I will not mention any names as I do not want Jose to get his feelings hurt.<\/p>\n My next AP SI in back in Houston starting on July 18th and it is for experienced teachers.
