In the Computer Science and Multimedia program, students will gain an understanding of programming and computer science. At WRVC, they work with Python, JavaScript, Java, Node Scripting, and C# programming languages. We emphasize creative thinking, abstraction, programming agnostic, syntax, design patterns, computer game development, debugging, and computational thinking in our computer science CTE program. Because of these mathematical algorithms, completion of Algebra 1 is necessary. Students can earn college credit by taking the AP Computer Science Principles course. 

First-year students will program in Javascript, Python, and “Node scripting” as part of your Tech I experience. The AP Computer Science A course will focus on Java during Tech II. This College Board curriculum imposes stringent and demanding expectations for reading, writing, and comprehension proficiency. During Tech II, students will work in the Unity Game Development environment to learn the C# language and the professional development cycle. It is also possible to cover advanced Unity game development, as well as virtual reality. Come ready to experiment and implement ideas in a collaborative environment. Students will learn to use technology to solve problems and, most importantly, have fun doing it.

Students could qualify for two paid AP classes and two certifications in Cisco Python and Unity Jr Programmer after successfully completing Tech I & II.

With instructor approval, students can take the Tech II level of the program without Tech I experience 

End Outcomes: AP College Credit (6), Certifications (2)

*This program accepts students in grades 10-12*
