AP Computer Science Principles: Syllabus and Timing

One of the classes I taught this past year was Advanced Placement Computer Science Principles. The format of the class was more college-level than high school and I believe that if done correctly, the students can get a lot out of it. I decided to post my syllabus and timing sheet so that any other teachers or parents can run through the course as well. You will notice that I use a lot of outside sources (crash course, bbc, cs4fn, csunplugged, etc.), these are great stand alone or in sequence opportunities for anyone interested in CS or someone who just wants to understand what John Oliver is ranting about.

I'm going to take off the contact info for my school, but I'll leave all the other non-fun bits of the syllabus in case a teacher wants to grab them. I'm all about sharing resources, so if you see something you like on my teaching pages, feel free to grab it.
