The Wiles Classroom Experience
Unlike any Other
Consistently ranked as the #1 computer science teacher in
the world by students who have had no other teacher.
The courses below are courses that I am currently teaching or in the process of developing for the upcoming school year.
Learn basic coding concepts using drag and drop coding environments like Scratch, MIT App Inventor, Karel in CodeHS and Code.org. This introductory course is designed for students who have an interest in learning about coding, but aren’t necessarily wanting to pursue a computer science career path.
Using JavaScript, one of the most popular and in demand languages, students will learn many essential programming concepts.
Creating games is fun and educational. Students will learn input method handling, animation, collision detection, game physics and basic artificial intelligence using the Unity game engine and the C# programming language.
The MV STAT program began as part of the GenYes program. Since then, we have taken the good parts of GenYes and expanded upon them and customized them to develop our own program. This program gives students hands-on experience working with many aspects of technology.
This course is currently in the development phase. Computer Science Explorations will provide students an opportunity to focus on areas of computer science that are of interest to them while still having the support and guidance of a classroom teacher.
The programming skills I learned in High School with Mr. Wiles allowed me to enter the computer science program at Miami University with a leg up on most of my classmates. I was even able to skip one of the entry level programming courses and jump into a higher level course as a freshman.
My name is John and I am not a real student. Mr. Wiles needs more stories from former students. If you have something to share that can be posted here, please send it to kwiles@mvcsd.us!
