Crash Course Computer Science #11-#20 Video Lesson Set | Programming, Algorithms & Computer Systems

Make computer science easier to teach with this no-prep 10-episode YouTube video lesson set for Crash Course Computer Science. This bundle gives students a structured way to follow fast-paced computing videos with vocabulary support, chronological written-response questions, end-of-video synthesis, multiple-choice review, and teacher-ready answer keys.

FREE CURRICULUM SNEAK PEEK: Download the free Crash Course Computer Science Full Curriculum Educator Planning Guide to preview the complete 10-week pacing, 3-unit structure, weekly/unit/final assessment rhythm, Week 10 final-assessment plan, and implementation guidance.

This 10-episode set focuses on programming languages, statements and functions, algorithms, data structures, Alan Turing, software engineering, integrated circuits, operating systems, memory and storage, and file systems. Each lesson helps students explain computing systems and concepts using specific evidence from the episode rather than passively watching the video.

Use these lessons for whole-class video instruction, sub plans, review, flipped classroom assignments, enrichment, make-up work, or independent study. Each episode is designed to reduce prep time while keeping students accountable for vocabulary, written reasoning, and conceptual understanding.
