Anybody is welcome to look through our notes and other course material! We developed these notes specifically for an AP CSP class at North Hollywood High School, for students with little to no previous programming experience. However, we taught this in conjunction with a class on Javascript basics, which gave us the leeway to skip over some JS fundamentals.
We're a group of UCLA students (in an organization called ACM Teach LA) who love teaching people about just how awesome computer science is! See more on our team note or learn more about ACM Teach LA.
Unfortunately, due to LAUSD policies we are unable to record live offerings of our course. However, if you have any questions, we encourage you reach out to us (either on GitHub or via email at acmteachla@gmail.com).
