Grade 10, Computer Engineering Technology (Open) TEE 2O1
This course examines computer hardware and the control of external components from an engineering perspective. Student will learn how to solve problems, and will study the functions of key computer components and peripherals, logic gates, fundamental programming concepts, internal numbering and character representation systems, and operating systems and networks. Students will also develop an awareness of potential careers in the field of computer engineering.
Prerequisite: none 1 credit
Grade 11, Computer Engineering (Workplace Preparation) ICE 3E1
This course helps students develop a practical understanding of hardware and software operations, computer networks, and operating systems. Students will learn to use utility and application software and to install, maintain, and troubleshoot computer systems and networks following proper maintenance and repair procedures. In addition to developing an understanding of the ethical use of computers, students will identify engineering career opportunities and the skill sets required for the workplace, including good customer service practices.
Prerequisite: TEE 2O1 is recommended 1 credit
Grade 11, Computer Engineering (University/College Preparation) ICE 3M1
This course helps students understand how computer hardware and software are used to solve computer-related problems from an engineering perspective. Students will explore ways of connecting computers, interfaces, and peripherals using their knowledge of logic gates, computer components, peripherals, programming, networks, and operating systems. Students will also construct systems that use computer programs to interact with hardware, install and configure key computer hardware and software components, develop an understanding of the ethical use of computers, and explore careers in computer engineering.
Prerequisite: TEE 2O1 is recommended 1 credit
Grade 12, Computer Engineering (Workplace Preparation) ICE 4E1
This course helps students understand network topologies (how computers are connected in networks) and associated hardware, and gain practical knowledge of hardware and software operations and trends. Students will install and maintain computer systems and networks, and diagnose and solve problems in them; develop maintenance and repair protocols; and customize utility and application software to meet user needs. As well as developing skills to communicate with customers, students will examine computer ethics and identify skill requirements for computer support positions.
Prerequisite: ICE3E1 1 credit
Grade 12, Computer Engineering (University/College Preparation) ICE 4M1
This course helps students understand and apply computer-engineering concepts. Students will analyze and design computer components such as logic circuits and interfaces; develop and construct systems and write the associated computer programs to drive real-world devices such as traffic lights, models, and robots; and explore networking hardware, protocols, and configurations. As well as developing project management skills, students will examine the ethics of computer use and explore related educational requirements and careers.
Prerequisite: ICE3M1 1 credit
