Create hands-on, meaningful, and relevant projects where students produce artifacts that require rigorous CS content-knowledge and software engineering skills.
Set aside class time to check in with students when they’re working on large (2-3+ weeks) group projects in order to catch them before they get derailed and create a project that doesn’t demonstrate assignment requirements.
Adjust all assignments to be a certain length in order to create and maintain consistent deadlines (e.g., weekly) so students remember when their homework is due.
