Tell students that they have to fix their indentation before you’ll help them debug to encourage well-organized code.

Remain calm when students get stuck on a question to avoid alarming students.

Assess students frequently to catch cheating before it becomes a bigger problem.

Highlight key differences between math, CS, and engineering to give students context for why CS is a distinct field in itself. Let students know that you don’t necessarily have to excel in one field to excel in the others.

Use CodingBat problems to supplement Java and Python curricula to give students more practice.

Choose an appropriate IDE that fits course goals. For AP CS, use an IDE that doesn’t autofill to give students more practice writing code on their own
