Hi everyone, Summer is almost here which means that the start of school next fall isn't far behind. As I've mentioned previously on the list, I'll be teaching two sections of a new "Introduction to Computer Programming" course featuring Python. I'm new to teaching C.S. and I'm wondering if anyone has any syllabi or other similar general course information they could share? (If any C.S. teachers find themselves teaching physics or chemistry I'd be happy to return the favor :-) -Tim -- Tim Wilson | Visit Sibley online: | Check out: Henry Sibley HS | http://www.isd197.org | http://www.zope.org W.

The book "Programming Principles in Java" actually teaches OOP by forcing students to adapt to the Model-View-Control paradigm and structural recursion. It was used successfully in the CS 101 course given at my department (I was one of the TA's) this semester. It might still not be published (we used an online version) -- surf the net and you'll find it lying around :-). Sincerely, -- David Pettersson <dave@se.linux.org> GnuPG public key available
