コンピュータサイエンスの原則

Go beyond the screen for an in-depth look at computing! Computer science encompasses much more than programming. In this class, students will get a taste of these topics such as human-computer interactions, algorithms, binary numbers, information theory, and graph theory. 

This is a relaxed, fun class.  I will introduce the topics, ask questions, provide puzzles, in-class demonstrations, and online activities.

Please note: This is not a coding class, nor do students need any coding experience for this class.

*** NOTE:  Students will need to be able to annotate for some classes.
