Females can change the world!

Let me clear this up, Computer Science is not just video games.  I say that because I thought that was all it was.  I think females have the misconception that computer science is making video games or computer games which extremely untrue.  There are so many endless amazing opportunities for females.  Designing websites, blogging, instagram, twitter, our whole world is computer science.  If we can get more females to join computer science we can change the world.

What is AP Computer Science Principles?

Ap computer science principles is a new course offered by the college board that overall introduces students to the foundational concepts of computer science and explores how computing and technology can impact the world.  I have already taken AP Computer Science which is class of code and overall learning how to write and interpret java.  Ap Computer Science is very different and so far I have found it doesn't have a main focus on coding but instead you learn about the overall foundation of the internet and how computers interact and communicate.  Ap comp sci principles takes your knowledge on computers and the internet to a whole new level that makes you take a step back and explore something new.

Code.org

All Ap computer science principles curriculum is completed on code studio so if you are considering taking the class try out code.org and maybe do the hour of code challenge
