​

There is no summer assignment this year for either APCS Principles or APCSA.  Relax, enjoy your summer break & come back in August ready to work!

One of the main programming tools that we use in APCS Principles is EarSketch from GA Tech.  This development environment allows the students to create music using the Python coding language.  This is the second year that I have had the privilege of working with the GA Tech team.  The students like the blend of creativity and programming with EarSketch.  

The following article was recently published about the EarSketch program.  Hope you enjoy!  http://www.news.gatech.edu/features/creating-next-code-composers
