(Grades Six-Eight) Middle level computer science builds upon the computer science standards for grade bands kindergarten to grade 2 and grade 3 to grade 5, incorporates the computer science standards for grade band grade six to grade eight, and helps to provide a seamless transition to introductory high school coursework. The standards focus on Indiana’s Five Core Computer Science Concepts: Data and Information, Computing Devices and Systems, Programs and Algorithms, Networking and Communication, and Impact and Culture. Focusing on these domains offer students the opportunity to experience and apply a variety of computer science concepts in order to build a solid foundation for more advanced and specialized studies. Recommended for grades six through eight. No required prerequisites.
