My school didn’t have any computer classes. I came from a farming school. ☹ Kids drove their tractors to school…it was pathetic…

My Hi School had a “terminal” which was a big green typwriter like thing with a rather large yellow roll of paper on the back. It was hooked up to the Univ. 3.5 hours away.

You had to punch each letter (touch typing was def out), and when you did the “Daisy Wheel” spun and hit the ribbon, making a mark on the yellow paper.

So you punch, tuka tuka tuka, wait for a response, tuka tuka tuka, rip off the paper and try to read the faded charachters…All of this happened over a period of time, since it took an average of 10 min for the info to travel, do what you wanted it to, then travel back…

There were 5 terminals in the State, my Hi Sch had 1… 5 kids got to learn how to make it spit stuff out… all done in basic…

well at my school we have a c++ programming course (for grade 10), and we have a two-semister program where you study the CISCO curriculum and get certified by cisco as a CCNA by the time you graduate from high school… unfortunately though, none of these courses fit in my schedule, as im going into an 8-semister long robotics/manufacturing/electronics program next year (grade 11), in a city thats like 45 minutes away from where i live… i get to work for the ford company too =) … bet its gonna be fun 🙂 :bounce:

Our school has many computers and many computer classes. Its pretty cool (even though most of the computers are slow as crap and people mistreat them so much).

9th:  
computer applications (required to graduate and for all other computer classes)

10:  
visual basic  
C++  
Java  
business computer applications  
desktop publishing

11:  
internet publishing 1 (a programming class required for this).  
ap computer science (c++ required)  
desktop publishing 2 (imagine whats required)

12:  
internet publishing 2

Of course you could take c++ youre 11th or 12th grade years, but these are just the earliest you can take the classes, unless you exempt out of a year or 2 of stuff. Pretty much all the classes except AP CS are just free time where we play games though. Especially IP 2 where we’ve done about 4 hours of work the entire year. And 3 of those hours are just the teacher making up crap for us to do to make it so the class won’t be a total waste.
