The course covers a broad range of foundational topics such as programming, algorithms, the internet, big data, digital privacy and security, and the societal impacts of computing.  \nComputing affects almost all aspects of modern life, and all students deserve an education that prepares them to pursue the wide array of intellectual and career opportunities that computing has made possible. This course seeks to provide foundational knowledge and skills to meaningfully participate in our increasingly digital society, economy, and culture.  \nREQUIRED TEXTS AND RESOURCES:  \n● [Code.org-Students will be](Code.org-Students will be) use code. org to access course content and practice assignments. Teacher will provide specific class code.  \n● Google Classroom-Students will use Google classroom to access course content and receive reminders. Teacher will provide specific class code.  \n● [Albert.io -Students will your Albert.io to](Albert.io -Students will your Albert.io to) practice AP-style multiple choice questions. Teacher will provide specific class code.  \nATTENDANCE AND PUNCTUALITY: Students should arrive to class on time. On time means you are in the classroom when the bell rings. Once the bell rings, students should be setting up computers and ready for instructions. Any student arriving after the bell will be marked tardy.  \nCELL PHONES, COMPUTERS, AND OTHER ELECTRONIC DEVICES: Students are expected to use their phones and electronic devices only at appropriate times and for appropriate usage. Students are not to take pictures or video of other students without their permission.

Assignments that are less than half finished do not meet the basic requirements and will receive a 0%. An honest attempt means the assignment was started and the work the student has produced shows evidence of making progress on the relevant standard(s) that are being assessed regardless of product or accuracy.  \nASSIGNMENT SUBMISSION: Assignments are submitted electronically through Google Classroom. Student progress is monitored and recorded via codeHS and [code.org](code.org)[ ](code.org)[online platforms. All electronic progress and submissions are timestamped. Due date](online platforms.
