Create — Applications from Ideas

College Board

Modified by Art Lopez, Sweetwater High School

Overview

Programming is a collaborative and creative process that brings ideas to life through the development of software. Programs can help solve problems, enable innovations, or express personal interests.

In this Performance Task, you will be developing a program of your choice. Your development process should include iteratively designing, implementing, and testing your program. You are strongly encouraged to work with another student in your class.

Please note that once this performance task has been assigned as an assessment (rather than as practice), you are expected to complete the task with minimal assistance from anyone other than your collaborative partner. For more clarification see the AP Computer Science Principles Assessment Overview for Students found in the Course and Exam Description.

You will be provided with 12 hours of class time to complete and submit the following:

A video of your program running

Written responses about your program and development process

Program Code

Your teacher will share submission guidelines that include suggestions for creating video and PDF files.

Note: Students in nontraditional classroom environments should consult a school‐based AP Coordinator for instructions.
