Web applications standards: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 11:55, 21 July 2016

These are the PROPOSED standards used in the course for web applications. The standards are framed by a draft version of the K-12 computer science framework. The standards borrow from ideas in IB computer science course, from CSTA standards, the W3 consortium, and from professional web developers. In many cases, the standards are pulled from industry leaders. For example, the databases standards are used (with permission) from Oracle and the PHP programming standards are used (pending permission) from the creator of PHP, Rasmus Lerdorf.

A note

Concepts answer the question: What does a computer scientist need to know? Practices answer the question: How do people do computer science? (source)

Essential Understandings[edit]

When this course is over, students will have the skills and knowledge to:

Understand the foundations of the web
Apply a design process to build quality web applications
Apply computational thinking to problems, designs and solutions
UIX and user interface (advanced students only)
