There are a number of different approaches to teaching programming. Some walk through one language and introduce its features in writing a series of small programs. Other courses might dive in with a “code reading” approach. Ever more popular are offerings built around using graphical programming environments to drive animations or script robots. Traditionalists might build a course around “The Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs” and heavily emphasize theory.
Here at the IEUC we would very much like to hear from you about your experiences with any of these models. If you are a student or would like to share recollections of your student days, please email us so we can sample your opinions of what works and what doesn’t from a student’s perspective. Also if you’ve taught such a course, we would be equally eager to get your perspective as well!
In any case, we look forward to your email.
