Conceptual understanding and problem solving are highly emphasized in this course. To be well prepared for the test, make sure you complete and understand the exercises the instructor may have go over in the classes. Due to the accumulative nature of learning programming and problem solving, a cascading scale of weights is used for the tests. This implies that, if there is any topic or concept that you do not quite understand in a test, make sure you understand it well before the next test. To get the most out of this class, you need to read the textbooks AND spend time using computers regularly.
