Data Structures, Algorithms, & Software Engineering

The course aims to prepare educators to successfully teach advanced computer programming for high school students in all curricular areas. Students will continue to develop their background in computer programming with the study of data structures; including arrays, linked lists, stacks, queues, and hash tables. Algorithms to manage these structures will also be a focus, including searching and sorting. Software engineering techniques will be presented throughout the course as well. Active learning and teaching techniques will be emphasized. All students should have a computer with webcam, headset with microphone, and reliable internet connection.
