Unlike conventi onal approaches\, \;\nours focuses on designing programs in a systema tic manner. The syntax \;\nof the chosen programming languages (both Java and Scheme) is only \;\ndiscussed as needed to support design pr inciples. Field tests with \;\nover 500 high schools and a dozen coll eges have shown that the \;\napproach produces better students than c onventional approaches that \;\nuse a single language. In several con trolled studies\, we could also \;\nshow that students find our curri culum more appealing than the AP \;\ncurriculum. \;\n \;\nIn my talk\, I will provide an overview of the project\, especially its \; \nintellectual premises and principles. My goal is to encourage you to&# 13\;\nthink about the first year in a different way. The old ones are of \;\nquestionable value. If we want our beautiful discipline to survi ve\, we \;\nmust find a good way of teaching it."\;\n\nImported f rom: http://calagator.org/events/1250455277 URL:http://web.cecs.pdx.edu/~colloq/felleisen-firstYear.html SUMMARY:The First Year in Computer Science LOCATION:Portland State University: 1633 SW Park Ave\, Portland OR 97214 US SEQUENCE:0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20080818T231636Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20080902T190000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20080902T170000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20080818T231636Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20080818T231832Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250455636 DESCRIPTION:Internet Professionals SIG \;\nCost: $10 for members $30 f or non members \;\n \;\nContent Management Systems (CMS) provide ever improving platforms for collective authoring of Website information .
