Abstract

Changing the language used to teach the AP Computer Science A course is an expensive, time-consuming, and ultimately controversial endeavor. However, it is worth raising the question from time to time to determine if such a change may now be appropriate. This panel offers a set of speakers specifically chosen to provide a diverse set of viewpoints and experiences (high school teacher, curriculum developer, exam reader, exam development committee member, university credit-granting administrator) on the question of whether the language in the AP CS A exam should be switched to Python in the near future.

AP计算机科学A考试应该改用Python吗?
改变AP计算机科学A课程的教学语言是一项昂贵、耗时且最终充满争议的努力。然而,值得不时提出这个问题,以确定这种改变现在是否适当。这个小组提供了一组特别选择的演讲者,他们提供了不同的观点和经验(高中教师,课程开发人员,考试读者,考试开发委员会成员,大学学分授予管理员),就AP CS a考试中的语言是否应该在不久的将来切换到Python这个问题。
