Course Pre-Requisites: Honors Geometry (C or better) or Geometry (B or better) or Basic Geometry (A) Course Description: Introduction to Computer Science is a full-year course that provides a complete introduction to the field of Computer Science including extensive knowledge of how to program in the Java programming language. Topics covered include selection and iteration, object-oriented programming and inheritance, data representation including arrays to store and process lists of data items, graphics, I/O processing and file manipulation, and Java applets. The social/ethical implications of computer usage are also addressed. The course is designed to get students programming computers quickly using the Karel programming language to introduce Java syntax and the concepts of sequential programming, abstraction, selection, and iteration. Students then transition to the Java programming language where they are introduced to the concepts of data entry and storage, output, variables and parameters, arithmetic operations, methods, arrays (lists), conditional statements, loop structures, and object-oriented programming techniques. Graphics programming and Java applets are also introduced although the primary focus is on developing object-oriented software solutions using the basic control structures of Java: selection and repetition. Although most of the course is taught in Java, it is believed that introducing students to two different programming languages promotes an understanding of software engineering as a problem solving process rather than simply as an understanding of the syntax of a particular programming language. 3

Course Philosophy: This course is the first in a 2-year sequence designed to provide students with an understanding and proficiency in the field of computer science. The second year course (if completed) culminates with the AP Computer Science A examination. However, the course is taught with the understanding that not all students will necessarily continue on to the second-year course. Graphics programming is also included so that students are able to create GUI (graphical user interface)-based programs and applets that enhance interest and understanding.

Course Goals: To introduce students to a fundamental set of programming topics in an engaging manner. To prepare students for the transition to AP Computer Science.

Enduring Understandings: (List the enduring understandings for each unit.)  Unit #1 – Procedural Programming is the basic mechanism that computer programs use to execute a program  Unit #2 – Karel Instructions (methods in Java) allow for modular program construction and execution  Unit #3 – Selection Statements allow a program to make decisions while the program is executing  Unit #4 – Iteration Structures allow a program to repeat a set of action for a constant or variable number of times  Unit #5 – The basic purpose of a Java program is to store data in variables, manipulate that data, and provide a reasonable interface to the user of the program  Unit #6 – Selection structures allow a program to make decisions while the program is executing  Unit #7 – Iterations structures allow a program to repeat a set of actions for a constant or variable number of times  Unit #8 – The development of a class in Java localizes functionality and encourages code reuse  Unit #9 – Arrays are useful for storing lists of data that can be easily manipulated  Unit #10 – Graphical User Interfaces allow access to a library of code for interacting with the user interactively and intuitively  Unit #11 – HTML and Applets allow Java program fragments to come to life on web pages  Unit #12 – Arrays of objects allow a programmer to create lists of complex objects; inheritance allows many different related objects to exist in the same list
