UTeach AP Computer Science A

Learning Community, Curriculum/Lessons

Funding Available for Texas Teachers!

In this rigorous, project-based curriculum, students deep-dive into programming concepts while collaborating to solve a series of real-world challenges. Each unit introduces unique interplanetary missions where students tackle hands-on problems as they "travel through space."

This curriculum immerses students in Java programming topics (e.g. abstraction, algorithms, data structures, object-oriented programming) and prepares students for advanced college coursework and potential career pathways in computer science.

The UTeach AP CSA curriculum has been re-endorsed by the College Board in alignment with the 2025–26 course framework. As a College Board–endorsed curriculum, UTeach CSA fully aligns with both the spirit and letter of the College Board’s AP® Computer Science A Framework.

Included with each course license:
• Comprehensive, classroom-ready teacher materials
• Engaging student-facing curriculum
• Codio platform access, with student accounts
• Unlimited teacher support (on-demand video or email coaching, just-in-time support videos, and professional learning community)

"The scaffolding and descriptions of concepts are great. I also like the project-based approach so students can envision applying coding to solve real-world problems." — Thomas S.

TEA will provide full reimbursement for these resources to Texas public schools through August 2026. Request funding at https://cs.uteach.utexas.edu/blended-learning.
