Computer Programming
|
At SCITS, Computer Programming students design and develop software using programming languages such as Java, Visual C++, Visual Basic, Flash ActionScript, Turing, and others. Students are provided with copies of most of this software for home use according to the license agreements purchased (Visual Studio 2005 Express Editions, Turing, Ready To Program with Java Technology). Students are first exposed to computer programming in the grade nine open Integrated Technologies course, can choose to take the grade ten open Computer and Information Science course, and then many choose to take the two senior college/university courses in Computer Programming. Every year several students graduate from SCITS to pursue Computer Studies at a post-secondary level. |
Visual Basic is one of the programs used in Computer Programming courses.
Students learn to create games like this one using ActionScript in Macromedia Flash MX.
Computer Programming and Computer Engineering students build and program robots like this Lego Mindstorms NXT Robot.
