2-4 hours per week. Weekly programming assignments will be posted at the end of each class. Students will be expected to work on the assignment and post it before the next class. The instructor will be available throughout the week to help along the way!Assessment
This is a very hands-on course. Students will be asked to try out the Python programming principles AS they are being taught in the class. After each class a lab project will be assigned that guides the student through creating complete and proper running programs that will be submitted to the instructor before the next class. The instructor will interact with the students throughout the week to guide them through these labs as they share, review and reassess each other's code.Class Experience
This is the third in the series of Introduction to Programming with C++ courses. It will pick up right where the second class left off. Course Objective This course is an introduction to the problem-solving and programming methodologies that are fundamental to the study of computer science. Students gain considerable experience with fundamental language constructs and types, such as expressions, decisions, iteration, functions, structures, and strings. This course (and those to follow in the sequence) is modeled after a college-level class taught by this instructor but is accessible to students who have never programmed before. This is an excellent course for a student exploring the possibility of becoming a programmer or software engineer, or possibly pursuing a college degree in a Computer Science field. Course Content This course will cover the following topics: • Single and Multi-Dimensional Arrays • Search algorithms • Sorting algorithms Students will need a desktop or laptop computer. We will be using an online programming environment. A comfortable understanding of computers is all the student needs. If you can follow a recipe, you can learn to program! In this course, students are expected to work on weekly programming projects. The instructor works with the students throughout the week on these projects through code submission, reviews and reassessment. Students post their code to the classroom for peer-review, suggestion and discussion. Many coding problems are solved just by sharing the problem. Many coding tricks are learned just by sharing code the student is proud of!
Learning Goals
Course Outcomes
• Students will become proficient and comfortable with problem-solving with respect to programming.
• Students will understand the basic methodologies of programming in both the procedural and object oriented environments.
• Students will gain understanding on the syntax and constructs of the C++ programming language.
• Students will be able to explain the concept of objects/classes and be able to represent real world events in class form.
• Students will become proficient in the following programming constructs: expressions, decisions, iteration, functions, structures and strings.
Syllabus
7 Lessons
over 7 WeeksLesson 1:
Recursion
Let's take a deeper look at an interesting programming topic - recursion. Allowing a function to call itself!
Lesson 2:
External Files, Part 1 - Reading
External files (text files, data files) are a great way to store data and share it between programs or sessions. Today we start using external files by reading data in from them.
Lesson 3:
External Files, Part 2 - Writing
Once your program has modified existing data (that it read in) or generated new data, we need to be able to write it out to a file. Today we see how straightforward that is to do in C++.
Lesson 4:
Object Oriented Programming - Creating Classes
Many programming languages focus on the idea of Object Oriented Programming (OOP), where the focus is creating 'objects' that can solve problems, or be used in solving problems. We start looking at how C++ handles creating these objects.
Other Details
Supply List
Students will be provided with weekly PowerPoint decks that will contain all the information they need.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I have a degree in computer science and have been teaching all levels of programming and software engineering at the college level for 20 years and have worked in the industry for the same amount of time. This particular course (Introduction to Programming) has always been my favorite to teach. My goal is to give the students an experience that will prepare them to be successful in a Computer Science based college program.
I love programming because there are multiple ways to solve a problem. Computers only do what you tell them to do - whether you realize you're telling them to do something or not!
