I have a degree in computer science and have been teaching all levels of programming and software engineering at the college level for 20 years and have worked in the industry for the same amount of time. This particular course (Introduction to Programming) has always been my favorite to teach. My goal is to give the students an experience that will prepare them to be successful in a Computer Science based college program.

I love programming because there are multiple ways to solve a problem. Computers only do what you tell them to do - whether you realize you're telling them to do something or not! 

숙제 제공
Weekly programming assignments will be posted at the end of each class. Students will be expected to work on the assignment and post it before the next class. The instructor will be available throughout the week to help along the way!

제공되는 평가
This is a very hands-on course. Students will be asked to try out the Python programming principles AS they are being taught in the class. After each class a lab project will be assigned that guides the student through creating complete and proper running programs that will be submitted to the instructor before the next class. The instructor will interact with the students throughout the week to guide them through these labs as they share, review and reassess each other's code.
