Going forward, your assignments will be updated on this site on a regular basis. If you haven't already done so, please read the last several posts for important information. I have also sent an email to every parent/guardian email listed on Eschool. Your THREE (3) assignments for the next six days are as follows: 1) Make sure that your parent/guardian received an email from me at [email protected]. If they didn't, the contents are posted on this website in the previous post. They should send an email to me with an updated email address if they did not receive an email. They should also check to make sure it did not get sent to their spam folder. 2) Log onto the AP College Board Classroom at https://apstudents.collegeboard.org/ Everybody has already signed onto this site to enroll in the class at the beginning of the year. If you have problems logging back on, email me right away. 2a) Your first two review assignments - Unit 1 Progress Check: MCQ Part A and Part B are due by Wednesday, April 1st. These assignments will be locked at 12:00 a.m on 4/2/20. Your grade for this will be based on completion only. Do the best you can to answer the questions. The answer keys will also be released as you do your work. 2b) Your next two review assignments Unit 2 Progress Check: MCQ Part A and Part B are due by Monday, April 6th. The assignments will be locked at 12:00 a.m. on 4/7/20. Again, your grade is based on completion only. After you review your answers, you should email me if you need further explanation of the questions. 3) In addition to these assignments, if you have not already done so, you must select a working compiler and development environment so that you can write, compile and execute code. See the previous posts for links and suggestions. These first 4 review assignments are to get us back into our routine. The amount of work this week is light since the last two weeks were officially our "snow days" and adjusted "Spring break" days due to the corona virus with no work being mandatory from the students. And, if you haven't done so already, you need to get a compiler and IDE up and running. Starting next week, we will increase the number of multiple choice review questions as well as introducing part II type questions where you will be writing code to solve a problem. There are also a very few odds and ends of new material that I will present over the next few weeks. They are minimal however as we have pretty much completed the material the AP exam will cover this year. Please let me know if you have any questions. Check back frequently and stay on top of your work. And one last thing that I can not stress enough: This is the time where you determine how well you will do on the exam. Don't just breeze through the review material the hour before the deadline. Give some serious thought to the multiple choice questions and the code samples you must write. When you look over the answers and the explanations, make sure you are POSITIVE you understand why the answer is what it is. "Kind of getting it", "sort of getting it", "mostly sure" means that you know just enough to be seriously confused by similar answers. You either know it or you do not. Comments are closed.
