This course focuses on programming for the internet using the Python programming language. Students will learn how to write client and server code and become familiar with database usage to build simple web applications. The goal of this course is not to teach students how to build graphically attractive web programs, but rather to teach the mechanics underpinning modern web applications. This is the second half of a two-part Computer Science series.
This course uses Knowledge, Skills, and Attributes (KSA) model to give students the opportunity to develop both real-world 21st Century Skills and Social and Emotional Learning Soft Skills to develop college and career readiness.
- Knowledge: Computer Science, Part 2
- Skill: Creativity—Idea Design and Refinement
- Attribute: Diligence
What You’ll Learn
- Advanced Programming Concepts: Deepen your skills with topics such as data structures, recursion, and modular programming.
