Paul Hennig on 2024.04.02 at 12:47: Mark your calendars for the 2024 Congressional App Challenge, which is launching earlier this year! In order to allow educators to collaborate with students fully, we are launching The 2024 Congressional App Challenge on May 1st. Most students will be in school, which will allow for students to submit apps before the end of the school year. While students will still need to be enrolled in middle or high school on October 24th, 2024, this allows students to submit projects that they created during the 2023-24 academic year. As students prepare for summer vacation, the Congressional App Challenge also makes a perfect summer activity for any middle school or high school student looking to gain invaluable STEM experience while inspiring Congress. Given that students can code apps on any topic using any coding language, and even submit robotics, the Congressional App Challenge makes a great addition to any CS curriculum or extra credit assignment. Moreover, if a student of yours has submitted an application in the past, they may be sitting on a winning application! So long as a student is still eligible, we are happy to accept repeat applications. You can learn more about the eligibility requirements here.

Matthew Lundeen on 2023.09.19 at 14:11: I attached the rest of the code from today. Vote for web development again in the upcoming poll if you want to build on this and start integrating javascript into the website next meeting.  The hardest part of using html and css is remembering specific variable and class names, so here's some resources to make using them a bit easier: https://www.w3schools.com/css/ https://www.w3schools.com/html/

Efe Ozalp on 2023.04.05 at 22:30: Hi everyone! For those of you who might have missed yesterday’s informational meeting, here is a quick recap of some key points: Going forward, CSC will be hosting guest speakers! These speakers will have personal experience in the computer science and/or IT fields. You can gain invaluable insight from hearing their stories about what they do in their lives. Our closest date for a guest speaker is currently planned for Tuesday, April 18th, during our meeting time – further details or changes will be announced soon in Updates, so please keep an eye out! Code Spotlights are here to stay. Some guest speakers will talk about how they work with certain code languages, but we also greatly encourage and appreciate members sharing about a language they’re passionate about. If you’ve worked with a language and you’d like to share about it with the club, contact me at eozalp5538@stu.d214.org or Mr. Hennig at paul.hennig@d214.org and we’ll organize a student-led Code Spotlight! Remember, this club is heavily student-oriented, and your passion is what puts the spark in computer science. Looking past summer and into our upcoming year of CSC, we are planning some possible non-curricular activities; one such example is club outings (like a pizza night!) This is a time for club members to interact and talk about their shared passions or anything else. Although we are not a club that competes in state tournaments, we are a group of people with a shared interest in computer science. A lot of connections are just waiting to be made! More details on this (and interest forms) will be sent out during your next year at Prospect. As always, keep an eye out for any updates on our page! Finally, we are considering participating in programming competitions and events as a club next year. What this will look like is not yet determined, but there are various activities out there that we can work on as a club! This will give us a common goal and something to develop together.  Thank you for taking the time to read this update! We hope to see you at our next meeting on the 11th. 

Efe Ozalp on 2023.04.03 at 15:17: Hey CSC! Hope you have all had a restful Spring Break. We're meeting tomorrow (Tuesday) morning at 7:30 AM in Room 163 as usual. We'll have an overview of what's coming up in the time between now and summer break (and beyond!) such as activities, speakers, and more. Please come join us as we go over some exciting new possibilities for the club!

Efe Ozalp on 2023.03.20 at 14:02: Hello all! CSC will meet tomorrow morning at 7:30 AM in Room 163. We will be continuing our C# Code Spotlight, which was put on a short pause last week. Snacks are provided as always :) Hope to see you there!
