SUMMARY:Code.org CS A (Intro to Java Programming)
DESCRIPTION:This 5-day summer professional learning experience prepares educators to teach Code.org’s Computer Science A (CSA) course\, with a focus on Java and object-oriented programming. Participants will engage in hands-on lessons\, build content knowledge\, and explore effective strategies for supporting students in an engaging\, inclusive high school CS classroom. \nIn Computer Science A (CSA)\, students learn object-oriented programming using Java. Students take on the role of software engineers\, and practice skills that are used in the field. \nThe Code.org curriculum for CSA is designed for any high school student who wishes to continue their computer science education after completing an introductory course such as Computer Science Principles (CSP) or Computer Science Discoveries (CSD). \nAP® Computer Science A (AP CSA) is a Java programming course offered by the College Board. It includes content expected to be covered in an introductory college computer science course. \nIn Iowa\, this curriculum can be offered as: \n\nAP Computer Science A (10157)\n\nFor more information\, please visit: https://newbo.co/education/educators/csa/ or  https://code.org/curriculum/csa \nThis is the workshop for you if:  \n\n\n\nYou want to start teaching AP Computer Science A as an advanced CS option for your students.\nYou have previously attended CSP and are ready for the next course in the pathway.\n\n\n\nThis is a course for teachers with previous industry or computer science teaching experience  \n  \nShare with a friend or colleague:

SUMMARY:Fun with Data!
DESCRIPTION:This professional learning workshop is part of our Interactive Games and Projects for High School Students series.\nEach workshop is comprised of two sessions presented virtually from 6-8pm. See all workshops by visiting the series page here. \nSession 1: Tuesday\, April 14\nUsing a data table from App Lab\, we will incorporate multiple lists to create a guessing game. For example\, using data about US States\, pull columns representing state names and images. We will choose a random image and have users identify the state. What fun! \nSession 2: Tuesday\, April 21\nIn this fun session\, we will attempt to teach App Lab how we are best motivated. Using generated lists of motivation quotes\, we will randomly select a quote and tell App Lab if we are motivated. Using that input\, our code will slowly learn and work to provide more similar quotes to those liked by the user. If time allows\, we will also learn how to store data in App Lab from use to use (meaning the training we provide will not reset each time we press run.) \n  \nAbout the Series\nInteractive Games and Projects for High School Students is a professional development course designed for high school educators teaching a general Computer Science course and/or Computer Science Principles. In this training\, we will develop various projects in Code.org’s App Lab that teach students to use variables\, conditionals\, and create functions at an introductory level. \nEach project will be taught at an introductory level suitable for first exposure of the concepts while also including opportunities for advanced students to extend the complexity. Teachers will leave with working code that can be expanded by students into larger projects. Educators will explore strategies for integrating projects that reinforce key programming concepts while fostering creativity and problem-solving. \n  \nCost breakdown\nOne Workshop: $60\nReceive a discount and register for both for $100.\nDiscounts available for pairs and groups of 10 or more. Contact k12@newbo.co for group pricing. \nShare with a friend or colleague:

SUMMARY:Flappy Bird & Dino Run
DESCRIPTION:This professional learning workshop is part of our Interactive Games and Projects for High School Students series.\nEach workshop is comprised of two sessions presented virtually from 6-8pm. See all workshops by visiting the series page here. \nSession 1: Tuesday\, March 24\nUse a timed loop and keyboard to animate keeping an object in the air (think Flappy Bird) and apply a jump and gravity function to an object (think dino run when the internet goes out.) \nSession 2: Tuesday\, March 31\nDevelop one of the games from session one. Move and avoid obstacles and earn points. \n  \nAbout the Series\nInteractive Games and Projects for High School Students is a professional development course designed for high school educators teaching a general Computer Science course and/or Computer Science Principles.
