CS Principles Pilot at Metropolitan State University of Denver [1]
The new CS Principles course provides an opportunity to advance the goal of making knowledge of computing and computer science accessible to every student. A pilot course used to inform the development of the CS Principles curriculum framework enabled its instructor to explore alternative pedagogical practices in pursuit of that goal. This article presents observations and reflections of the instructor with respect to these attempted practices.
