This curriculum has been developed for a culturally, linguistically, and socially diverse group of students in Los Angeles Unified School District. District-wide, student ethnicities include .3% American Indian, 3.7% Asian, .4% Pacific Islander, 2.3% Filipino, 73.0% Latino, 10.9% African American, 8.8% White, and .6% Other or multiple responses. Over 38% of students are English-language learners, with most English language learners students speaking Spanish as their primary language. Furthermore, 74% of students qualify for free or reduced lunches.
Standards
The standards used for the Exploring Computer Science curriculum are based on the topics and goals outlined in A Model Curriculum for K-12 Computer Science developed by the ACM K-12 task force curriculum committee. Most of the objectives in the course align with the Level III course, Computer Science as Analysis and Design, while some objectives are necessarily aligned with the Level II course, Computer Science in the Modern World, in order to provide appropriate background knowledge for the more advanced topics.
Students in the Warren County Career Center's Computer Information Specialist program could walk away with a diploma plus three separate certifications.
