[quote=Anonymous]Dd took AP comp sci principles and it was a joke. However, I spoke with parents in the other tech options and they didn't seem to learn much, either. I'd check with parents from your actual school. At our school, the teacher seemed to be learning the material alongside kids, and most of the classes seemed to be open sessions where the kids log into a website and do independent work. But that the first year it was offered at our school (so could have changed) and may have been unique to our school. I think motivated kids learned a lot and less motivated kids got As without much work. (My kid is the latter, yet still got a 4 on the AP test.) [/quote]
