I have one year to teach middle/high schoolers about computer science, what should I teach them?

Code.org Teachable Machine
  1. Code.org is a non-profit whose goal is to expose all students to computer programming.
    As far as the worry that it caters itself to people who have no prior CS knowledge, the unfortunate reality is that there aren't enough trained CS teachers to support the number of students out there, so they wanted to create a curriculum that would allow any teacher who was willing to put in the time to learn the curriculum to be successful, even if they weren't a CS teacher. I know several teachers in my district who were not CS teachers (usually business or math) and were introduced to the code.org curriculum and loved it. Obviously teachers who have a deep understanding of the material are going to be more successful at it than teachers who don't know what a computer is (Covid years aside, I think my AP scores rival anyone's in the country), but the lesson plans are written in such a way that anyone can pick it up, go through it carefully, and teach what they need to teach. They provide slides, keys, talking points. It's all there. And it's 100% free.
