Unit 8: Build Your Own Tools
Computer Programming I, unit 8 of 12
Functions. One job, one name, parameters, return values, docstrings, and the difference between returning and printing.
Unit 8 of 12 in Computer Programming I, the first course in the Digital Technology cluster. 15 instructional days. Maryland strands N.
The unit ends in a performance task: The Toolkit.
Every document is a separate Word file, so you print the one handout you need instead of hunting through a packet. Every page carries a running header and a file code in the footer. Universal design is built into the page, not described in a sidebar: answer areas are sized from the expected response, supports for multilingual learners are written by proficiency level, and accommodations are separated from modifications.
Alignment. Written against the Maryland CTE course standards adopted by the State Board in September 2025. Crosswalks for other states are in progress and are not included yet.
