AP Coordinators and the PPR in the AP CSP Exam
FAQ
What are the AP coordinator’s responsibilities regarding the Personalized Project Reference for the AP Computer Science Principles Exam?
During Section II of the AP Computer Science Principles (CSP) end-of course exam, students will refer to their Personalized Project Reference (PPR) to complete their written responses.
To ensure students have their PPR on exam day, AP coordinators are responsible for completing these tasks:
- Prior to exam day, print out the PPR, which students must submit through the AP Digital Portfolio by April 30, 11:59 p.m. ET. It’s important to print out the PPR for each student before exam day, whether the school is testing digitally or on paper.
- Monitor student activity in the AP Digital Portfolio and verify that the Create performance task components have been submitted as final by the April 30 deadline.
- On exam day, provide the PPR for each student taking the exam to the proctor along with the AP CSP Exam packets.
AP coordinators can access the AP Coordinator’s Manual, Part 2 for additional details about the PPR, including guidance about printing and resolving PPR issues on exam day.
What is the role of the AP coordinator in schools supporting homeschooled and virtual school students?
