Course Description

This workshop introduces object oriented programming development and design using the Java programming language. Students will learn basic programming language concepts including Java syntax: control structures, input/output and memory allocation. Object oriented concepts will be introduced including Java classes containing variables and methods. Students will focus on problem solving skills learning sound software engineering practices of algorithm design and development.

This course will start with the very basics, assuming no students have any previous Java programming experience or any other programming experience. During the course we will cover the College Board’s AP Computer Science A Java subset for students interested in challenging the AP exam in May, 2021 at their respective high schools. Additional information regarding online sites will be provided where they can continue to hone their java skills throughout the 2020-21 school year in anticipation of taking the AP  Computer Science A exam.
