Description
Programming can be difficult at first but it doesn't have to be. Using animations and simple explanations, we make difficult concepts easy. Lift off your Computer Science journey here!
This course teaches you Java programming fundamentals using the AP Computer Science A syllabus. We cover all 10 units of the AP Computer Science A course using practical examples and in-depth explanations.
In this course, you will learn:
Key introductory programming concepts such as variables, conditional statements, and loops
Object-oriented programming (OOP) concepts including inheritance
Data structures such as arrays, 2D arrays, and ArrayLists
Complex programming concepts such as recursion
We use animations to provide step by step explanations of how Java programs actually run. By showing what happens when we run a program, students can gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of programming. Each lesson introduces concepts in a concise, easy to understand manner. We recommend taking the course in order as each concept we introduce builds upon the next.
By the end of the course, you will have a strong understanding of Java Programming and have a solid general programming foundation. This will ensure that you are prepared to succeed in the AP Computer Science A course.
