AP Computer Science Program
Java is taught as a part of our AP Computer Science prep courses. These courses cover the fundamentals of Java, which helps prepare students for the AP Computer Science A course in high school.
Java 1 – Introductory Course
In the introductory course, high school students learn the fundamentals of the Java programming language including the structure of a Java program. They will get familiar with programming concepts like variables, data types, methods, control statements, arrays, and logical operators. The course ends with a 2-lesson final project that incorporates all the material covered in class.
Java 2 – Intermediate Course
In the intermediate course, high school students build on what they learned in Java 1 with object-oriented programming. This includes Java classes and objects, static methods, encapsulation, inheritance, abstraction, interfaces, polymorphism, and more. The course ends with a 2-lesson final project that ties together all the concepts learned throughout each lesson.
