Provide a comprehensive syllabus before your class begins so students of all ability levels can plan for the semester and gather the tools they need to succeed in the course.
Have students design projects based on content from their other courses, and have them brainstorm how the code they write might be useful in a variety of fields. This broadens their understanding of CS’s many applications.
Have students use spreadsheets to analyze a dataset of their choice in order to provide an interesting and relevant context for developing their spreadsheet skills.
