Code Studio: Computer Science: Course 3

What is inside a computer? Give your budding computer scientists a worksheet that has them label parts of a computer. They use a link included on the sheet to label basic input/output systems, video cards, drives, case fan, and more....

Middle level students delve deeper into computer programming topics to identify flexible solutions to more complex problems, to ultimately create games and stories they can share.

For readers with no prior computer programming experience, students create programs to solve problems and create interactive games or stories to share with others.

Start coding with algorithms, loops, conditionals, and events and then you'll move on functions. In the second part of this course, design and create a capstone project you can share with your friends and family.

Learn to use different kinds of loops, events, functions, and conditionals. Investigate different problem-solving techniques and discuss societal impacts of computing and the internet. In the second part of this course, design and create...

Teaches basic computer science concepts using the programming language Scratch. In this activity, students use characters from Cartoon Network's "The Amazing World of Gumball" to create an animated story.

Students create a bar graph on the computer using given information from the teacher. They create a bar graph using their own information chart (they need to create one on separate paper first). They utilize Microsoft Excel for this...

Students develop their understanding of loops, conditionals, and events. Beyond coding, students learn about digital citizenship.

Using the Khan Academy Computer Science platform, sixth graders at Los Altos School District build using code. They create art by writing programs in a JavaScript implementation of the Processing language called Processing.js.

Activities that teach students basic computer science concepts using the programming language Scratch. Includes lots of additional supports for teachers. All materials are free and teachers sign in to create a class.
