Students who develop on their own computer should plan time for conversion to this system before due dates. There may be some software for each project that is provided by the instructor on barada. If source code is provided, the student will be responsible for conversion to CodeWarrior. If object code is provided, the instructor may or may not make object code available for student owned computers. If you plan to use CodeWarrior for development, let the instructor know as soon as possible to increase the chance that object code might be available for other computers.
Students learn more and better when they are active participants in the learning process.
Students are also easily bored when the instructor spends the entire class time telling them what they just read in the textbook. For these reasons and many others, active learning is used in this course. Student understanding of the material will be tested through a set of two mini-tests on major points of the course. Each of these tests will be designed to be completed in 35 minutes, and will take the first half of a class period. The second half of the class will be reserved for groups to take a group mini-test.
