Blog Post 1: 9/19/10 - My Thoughts on CSAP so Far

I've only been in Computer Science AP for a few weeks now. With these few weeks, my programming knowledge and experience has increased exponentially. My programming knowledge before entering the class was really nonexistent. Now I can identify classes, use methods effectively, and have the code print out whatever i need it to say. I think the online quizzes have been dramatically better than the paper-wasting quizzes of the past, the activities challenging but doable, and the information I am learning interesting. I love that every day in Computer Science, I am learning something even better to do with the code than I did the day before. I am enjoying the class very much because although challenging, I am eager to learn the subject matter. My favorite thing so far is the "Smiley Face" lab. Getting to finally design graphics is very exciting. I can't wait to do even cooler things with Java or other programming languages we use.
