SDC Intro to Programming

[homeschoolmom1]

I think we will combine the two approaches. He is working on the quizzes now (he does 10 per day, since he spends an additional 1-2 hours per day on Udemy Java). He will do the exam for the first time on June 22rd. If he fails, will do exam again on June 26th. (if he passes, will do US history for the second exam this month). If he fails the Intro to Programming exam again, will wait until after June 27th and submit assignments. Our subscription ends on July 6th, so either way I hope he will pass it by then. He is only 14 years old (homeschooled), so I am not pushing speed for him, rather than actual understanding of the material.

Either way, he will spend at least another year on learning the fundamentals of Java before doing the Data Structures course. I think it is really crucial to have a firm grasp on algorithms and data structures.
