This document is a letter from a mathematics department recommending that an AP Computer Science student take an independent study course in computing. The independent study course, called Computing Independent Study (CIS), would allow students to build and maintain a Linux cluster, learn about scientific and super computing applications, and potentially learn Android application development. CIS meets every other week after school to install new software and discuss research projects. Topics covered may include parallel programming, metrics, fractal systems, large integers, and more. The teacher strongly recommends the APCS student consider taking CIS to continue learning new concepts in super computing.
