CSCI 17200 - Topics in Creative Problem Solving


CSCI 172 is a pass/fail (CR/NC) faculty-supervised workshop that meets ten times per semester. Each workshop explores a different applied topic in computer science. An undergraduate peer leader presents slides, guides discussions, and engages the participants in activities that emphasize collaborative problem solving. This course explores the role of teamwork and in-class activities to improve student retention, with particular interest in underrepresented populations in computer science.
 
Special conditions: The course meets 10 times for 1 hour 15 minutes (75 minutes). Adjusted for credit hours, the semester total is the 15 hours required for a 1-credit course. The class meets on the bell schedule for ten 75-minute sessions per semester. The special conditions are that CSCI 172 meets once rather than twice a week and meets during only ten of the 15 weeks of the semester.
