To prepare students for the AP CS A exam, make in-class assessments as similar to the final AP exam as possible.
Create hands-on, meaningful, and relevant projects where students produce artifacts that require rigorous CS content-knowledge and software engineering skills.
Use small whiteboards for formative assessments during class instead of clickers because they have a low overhead to get up and running and they allow you to quickly gauge student progress.
