[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DS is AP Comp Sci now as fresheman and it counts toward tech credit (he has 50% of credit from completing 1st semester). Or does AP CS refer to something else?[/quote] AP Computer Science [i]Principles[/i] is the one that counts toward the tech credit.[/quote] This is correct. My kid took it last year, and has fulfilled their tech credit. They don’t learn a lot of specific programming language, more like how computers and their programmers approach problem-solving.[/quote] Can you say more about what they learn in th Reg class? My kid isn’t interested in computer programming but definitely has an interest in approaches to problem-solving. She was planning on taking the intro engineering class, but thinking AP CS principles might also be appropriate based on your description. [/quote]
