Students can

• seek guidance from your teacher or AP Coordinator to use and acknowledge APIs or other pieces of open-source code. Program code not written by you can be used in programs as long as you are extending the project in some new way. You should provide acknowledgment and credit from program code you did not write

• seek assistance from your teacher or AP Coordinator in resolving collaboration issues where one partner is clearly and directly impeding the completion of the Create performance task
