Creating Apps with Devices - Circuit Playground - In the Creating Apps with Devices unit, students explore the role of physical devices in computing.

Power, Propaganda, & Pigs- Step into the world of rebellion, rhetoric, and revolution in George Orwell’s Animal Farm. This class is a deep dive into how language can be used to control or liberate, how ideals can be twisted, and how history often repeats itself under different disguises. Healthy curiosity will lead students through hidden messages in literature, unravel the psychology behind societal hierarchy and dynamics, and teach how stories reflect and shape the world in which they live. A student will need a critical mind and a willingness to boldly question the status quo: What makes a good leader? How does propaganda work? Why do revolutions fail? Does equality truly exist within society? Join us as we pull back the curtain on power and truth. "All animals are equal—" but some classes are more thought-provoking than others.
