Lower Merion High School – CodeLM Event (Online)

codeLM

Here are some important details from Lower Merion:
• Everything will be done online through our website – NewWaveComputers.com
• Students will work individually in three divisions:

1. Junior Developer – This is for students that are in their first year of computer science, typically a pre-AP course.
2. Senior Developer – These students are in their second year of computer science, or are enrolled in AP Computer Science A
3. Upper Management – Students have already completed AP Computer Science A or are enrolled in a post-AP CSA course.

• Prizes will be awarded for the top finishers in each division.
• The competition will consist of a handful of auto-graded questions. Submissions will not be evaluated on quality, just simply if it works.
• Students can write solutions in Java, Python or C++.
• Students will be able to compete from anywhere, as long as they have a high school teacher that will vouch for their level of experience..

Students can register for a practice account at NewWaveComputers.com where they can test out our dashboard and see questions from last year’s competition.

Message from Tom Swope – Computer Science Teacher at Lower Merion HS:

Please let me know if you have any questions. We’re hoping that our competition will serve as a fun and engaging activity for students during these very unusual times.
