Advanced Computers, includes the study of computers and computing, including their theoretical and algorithmic
foundations, hardware and software, and their uses for processing information.
Students gain an understanding of how a computer performs, programming languages and other Hardware & Software
constituents.
The course has a theoretical and mathematical focus, and involves exploring processes such as algorithms, to solve
problems.
Builds strong problem-solving, analysis and decision-making abilities in the student.
As computer usage grows, technology skills will be imperative for the future workforce. The need for skilled technology
professionals is just beginning. And luckily, these skills can be learned at a young age.
Helps the student in understanding of computing architecture, construction, engineering and design. It facilitates
awareness and ability to cope with and adapt to rapid technological changes.
Computational thinking is a logic and problem-solving process that pairs skills like perseverance and collaboration with
concepts like algorithms and loops so that students can build solutions that could be carried out by a computer.
Implementation of Advanced Computers education into curricula, even at the elementary level, can result in learning
experiences that are both valuable and engaging.
Principal areas of study within Computer Science include artificial intelligence, computer systems and networks, human
computer interaction, vision and graphics, numerical analysis, programming languages, software engineering,
bioinformatics and theory of computing.
