Computer Science Educators Asked on August 21, 2021
We are currently researching what curriculum to use/adapt for the 2019-2020 school year. It will be our first year offering AP CSA. The students taking the class will have had 3-7 years of computers science classes and plan to go into a computer science program.
Anyone have strong feelings on what AP CSA curriculum to use?
With the amount of preparation you're describing, the only thing your students will likely need is a course that teaches them Java syntax and object oriented programming, as the AP CSA exam assumes knowledge of Java:
SHOW ALL YOUR WORK. REMEMBER THAT PROGRAM SEGMENTS ARE TO BE WRITTEN IN JAVA.
(from https://apcentral.collegeboard.org/pdf/ap-2020exam-sample-questions-computer-science.pdf)
Code.org has a nice list of Java curricula that specifically target the AP CSA outcomes, but really any "Fundamentals of Java" course or online tutorial would likely be just fine.
