Condor323366yThat sucks, but it's not like IT classes in schools are all that useful anyway.. more often than not the teachers barely know how to open MS Word ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
-
Scipio6926yFair enough. But I honestly really wish my school offered Latin courses.
C++ of the modern spoken languages -
I feel sorry for you xD But at least you got IT lessons, I got none in 8th(!) grade. Most of them dont even have an own computer at home. So cringe
-
@oudalally I don't get the latin joke but about your sentence above: I don't know if any student has both - but they are both available as advanced courses (while cs isn't).
@Condor I know the memes :D Luckily my teacher is not like that. He might be an oldy when it comes to software and stuff but at least he knows his stuff.
@kolaente I'd have switched schools if I didn't. (I should have anyways) -
At my school, we didn't even have IT/CS in the later years, not even a basic cours, because teaching it in the lower grades can be done by just taking a course, without studiing it.
We only had IT/Math/Arts (yes, arts!).
- IT: A toy language (NIKI, similar to Pascal but with German keywords and without variables, made for Windows 3.1), the Lego robots, Delphi (the old Borland Delphi because we bought it more than a decade ago) and some basics of HTML 4 together with a little bit CSS.
- Math: A lot of Excel (2000) and a calculation tool made for Windows 3.1, too.
- Arts: Depending on the teacher, a half semester of either GIMP and some other old software we bought a decade ago or some CAD.
Everytime all students got the basics, we moved to the next point on the list.
I finished school this year. The school is MINT "certified" now, but at least a normal language (Python) is taught now. -
@sbiewald haha ouch ^^'
I guess I'm glad that I at least have a good teacher teaching stuff that might be old but not outdated.
@oudalally good luck, dude ;)

You know what really, really sucks about my school? Rant#00
I'm in my last year now and they removed one CS/IT lesson. Now I have two fucking 45min lessons (instead of three) of learning what I'm actually interested in.
Even worse: They don't provide and LK ("Leistungskurs" == advanced course) for CS/IT. Not like for Maths, English, German - okay but LATIN AND SPORT? Wtf
And this school calls themselves a MINT-school (Maths, IT, Natural Sciences, Technology).
EVEN WORSE: The 12th graders now don't even have a basic course CS/IT.
Fuck you school.
