What do we want you to remember 10 years from now about computer science?


1. You can design and create software to solve problems


2. Computer scientists are a tribe who use specific tools, languages, and techniques to understand and solve problems.
The purpose of this wiki is to support student learning for computer science. The intended audience for this wiki is students who are enrolled in Exploring Computer Science.


3. If you want to know what is true, you must must know the depth of a thing

=== News for June 2016 ===


*[[Use predefined functions and parameters, classes and methods to divide a complex problem into simpler parts.]]
New content is being added a furious pace, and I am delighted to have learned from [https://cs50.harvard.edu/ CS50]. This is a wonderful resource I will use going forward to support student learning in computer science. As always, if you are interested in helping contribute to this wiki, please send an email to bill@mackenty.org. [[User:Mr. MacKenty|Mr. MacKenty]] ([[User talk:Mr. MacKenty|talk]]) 12:08, 2 June 2016 (CEST)
*[[Describe a software development process used to solve software problems (e.g., design, coding, testing, verification).]]
*[[Explain how sequence, selection, iteration, and recursion are building blocks of algorithms.]]
*[[Compare techniques for analyzing massive data collections.]]
*[[Describe the relationship between binary and hexadecimal representations.]]
*[[Analyze the representation and trade-offs among various forms of digital information.]]
*[[Describe how various types of data are stored in a computer system.]]

=== News for April 2016 ===


*[[Create and organize Web pages through the use of a variety of web programming design tools.]]
Welcome to our new classroom website. I am still moving stuff from moodle to here. We are learning about and applying our knowledge about [[design]]. I have gotten some feedback that some of you think this is "boring but important". I agree. Please remember what I told you: 1 hour of good design saves you '''hundreds of hours fixing problems later'''.
