Massey Hill Classical High – Coding II

Apr 2026 · 2nd Semester

Coding II challenges students to develop advanced skills in problem analysis, construction of algorithms, and computer implementation of algorithms as they work on programming projects of increased complexity. In so doing, they develop key skills of discernment and judgment as they must choose from among many languages, development environments, and strategies for the program life cycle. Course content is reinforced through numerous short- and long-term programming projects, accomplished both individually and in small groups. These projects are meant to hone the discipline and logical thinking skills necessary to craft error-free syntax for the writing and testing of programs. Upon completion of this course, profi cient students will demonstrate an understanding of object-oriented programming language using high-level languages such as FOCUS, Python, or SAS. Dual Coding (Course 3 or 4) (Grade 11-12) - Course content is reinforced through numerous short- and long-term programming projects, accomplished both individually and in small groups. These projects are meant to hone the discipline and logical thinking skills necessary to craft error-free syntax for the writing and testing of programs. Upon completion of this course, profi cient students will demonstrate an understanding of object-oriented programming language using high-level languages such as FOCUS, Python, or SAS. This course will focus on the following: Problem solving and algorithm development; Organization and characteristics of modern digital computers with emphasis on developing good programming habits; Building abstractions with procedures and data, and programming in a modern computing language. Fees will apply.
