Curriculum Projects
I have been involved in several projects involving parallel
computing during the past few years. These have included several faculty
workshops, editing the book Laboratories for Parallel Computing, and
helping to establish UParCC (the Undergraduate Parallel Computing
Consortium). This page includes links to materials from the most recent
workshops, in 1997 and 1998.
This page has links to materials about
concurrent programming in Java using CSP. It includes powerpoint slides
from my 1999 SIGCSE presentation and links to other sites with information about
Java with CSP.
The past few years I have been working with a group
of faculty from several schools on an NSF funded project to develop materials
for teaching object-oriented programming early in the computer science
curriculum. This page contains materials which we have developed under that
project and pointers to other locations with useful materials. It includes
materials on teaching C++ in C.S. 1 and C.S. 2.
This unofficial APCS web page, also
known as the Chief Reader's web page, contains materials useful for teaching
APCS contributed by teacher's and others and includes links to several other
sites.
