The Computer Club at O'Dea High School typically meets one day a week to discuss and work on computer hardware and software. It is rather informal and is open to all O'Dea students. Some students come all year, and others come as other activities permit (sports, plays, band, etc.). The club has several old computers as well as a Dell dual core system with Windows 7, and various versions of linux operating systems, especially Ubuntu. The Computer Club has also explored simple programming with both Javascript and Visual Basic, and has explored using various netbook computers with emphasis on learning their advantages/disadvantages for college. Each year involves new aspects of the use of computers, both hardware and software, depending on the interests of the students and teacher in the club.
