Course Description
This Computer Science class has several learning goals:
Help students develop fundamental knowledge and understanding of the concepts of a higher-level programming language; to set a foundation in the design, construction, and analysis of programs; to hone problems solving skills, especially those associated with the study of computer programming and to provide students with an understanding of issues and ideas in the larger world of computer science and computer programming. This course is designed to prepare students who are interested in mastering the concepts mentioned above in more depth, regardless if they are taking AP computer courses at school or not, to be more confident and score high in AP computer science A exam.
The collegexpress.com has provided top ten reasons to major in Computer Science in College. As a matter of fact, the CS enrollment to the University of Michigan, College of Engineering steadily increased from 34 in the year of 2001 to 1263 in the year of 2019.
In the meanwhile, many students however find themselves not adequately prepared for taking CS classes in college due to the lack of knowledge and training. One of the reasons is that most students usually take the Computer Science class rather late in their high school years and that includes those who do not take the class until after the Calculus BC class.
Actually, any students who have a solid Algebra I background should be ready to learn Computer Science, with no previous programming background required.
Class Description
朱明 Ming Zhu Biography
Mr. Zhu is very passionate about high school STEM education and experienced in coaching
students with the AP exam study materials. His students have scored 5 in the AP Calculus BC,
AP Physics Mechanics, AP Statistics, AP Physics E&M, and AP Computer Science A exams.
He has volunteered and been actively involved in many math competitions in the past years. He
outlined the competition strategy and prepared the students with the competition rules to assist
the middle school to win the team 2 nd place in the Michigan state MATHCOUNT competition.
He organized a very young Ann Arbor math team to participate in the HMMT (Harvard MIT Math
Tournament) and PUMAC (The Princeton University Mathematics Competition) Math
competitions.
He was a parent volunteer and served as the team coach of the Michigan All-
Stars Math team in the last two years. The All-Stars team that he lead has rewritten the
Michigan Math competition history by winning so many national awards.
He was invited by the Michigan Section of the Mathematical Association of America (MAA) as a coach
to lead the highly selected Michigan Math teams to participate in the American Regions
Mathematics League competition.
