Online Learning Just Got Smarter!
Today’s students interact comfortably with the online world and the educational programs it offers.
Unit 1: Count Like a Computer
When you take a selfie or use your laptop to record a video of yourself giving a speech, how does the device actually store the image or video? Computers only know a language called binary, which just consists of 0s and 1s. So, every image, song, video, and letter needs to be converted into binary. How exactly does this happen? Can we really reduce every type of data down to a 0 and 1? You’ll learn all this and more as we investigate digital representation of data. You’ll even put your coding skills to use as we create a Python program to do a binary conversion for us!
