Course Description
This course introduces high school students to the fundamental concepts of computer science, including programming, algorithms, and data structures. Through hands-on projects and collaborative learning, students will develop problem-solving skills and a foundational understanding of computer science principles. Students will explore basic programming constructs such as variables, loops, conditionals, and functions. Some of the most widely used programming languages will be demonstrated to understand basic programming principles. As a final project, students will create an interactive story game using a simple programming language like Python. This project will allow students to apply basic programming concepts while engaging their creativity and storytelling skills.
