Event Description

The WeTeach_AP®CSA In-Person 4-day Summer Institute is designed to teach the WeTeach_AP®CSA online curriculum and prepare students for the AP Computer Science A test. The language for the AP CSA test is Java, and the entire curriculum is based on this programming language. The curriculum is mostly web-based, with online lessons and videos for both teachers and students to use, as well as labs completed using the online programming platform Repl.it, endorsed and recommended by the College Board. PDF documents are also provided as an alternative lesson format. All quizzes are paper/pencil based since this is how the test is given.

This is NOT a training for beginning computer science teachers with no relevant experience. It is highly recommended teachers have prior knowledge in computer science as well as Java programming, preferably at least one year teaching computer science using Java. It is also recommended teachers have taken and passed a certification instrument for computer science, whether the TExES, Praxis, Pearson, or other certification requirements for your school.

The workshop will be fast-paced, experiencing some of each unit, but not an exhaustive coverage of the curriculum. BE prepared to have fun, and experience a unique and engaging curriculum your students will really appreciate and learn well from. It's going to be great!

Certificates of Participation - Certificates stating 28 hours of Continuing Professional Education hours (CPE credits) earned will be sent electronically after the participant has completed the online course evaluation. Any questions about certificates should be directed toward the contact person listed on this page.
