Programming

From SHS Science/Math teacher, Shawn Cornally

Rabbits vs. Wolves:

I created a population dynamics simulator that runs over the web. It takes into account all sorts of variables like migration, starvation, birth rate, death rate, and habitat type. The program would be useful in many math courses, and for any science teacher looking to teach about healthy habitats and ecology.

I would love to program any other simulations that a teacher might want to use. Please feel free to drop me a line.

Computer Programming: Internet Scripting

The computer programming course at the high school covers the basic technologies that make up the Internet. Students learn basic HTML document layout. They learn advanced CSS styling to make their sites looks great, and they learn PHP and Javascript to make give their sites a brain. Without the Solon file server this would not be possible. Here are a few entirely student-generated programs:
