CS Fundamentals
20 hour courses for each grade can be taught once a week
CS Fundamentals
Code.org’s CS Fundamentals courses blend online, self-guided, and self-paced tutorials with “unplugged” activities that require no computer at all. Students will create computer programs that will help them learn to collaborate with others, develop problem-solving skills, and persist through difficult tasks. They will study programming concepts, computational thinking, digital citizenship, and develop interactive games or stories they can share.
Students at every grade level (including pre-readers) can begin CS Fundamentals with no prior programming experience.

CS Principles
In fall 2016, the College Board launched its newest AP® course, AP Computer Science Principles. The course introduces students to the foundational concepts of computer science and challenges them to explore how computing and technology can impact the world. The AP Program designed AP Computer Science Principles with the goal of creating leaders in computer science fields and attracting and engaging those who are traditionally underrepresented with essential computing tools and multidisciplinary opportunities. The curriculum is flexible to be taught as a normal course or as an AP course.
No prerequisites needed. This course works for beginners or students with experience in CS Fundamentals or CS Discoveries.
