AP CSA | Steganography Lab | Lecture Slides | High School

10 PowerPoint slides on steganography. It is a resource I created out of my own need to better explain the steganography technique as the College Board materials are cumbersome. The results in my class were that more students understood steganography and they dared to implement the code. Steganography is a relatively difficult technique to implement for most of high school students as it involves multi dimensional arrays with sub-components RGB (pixels). This resource can be used during Q3
