Consider greenfoot as a combination between a framework for creating two-dimensional grid assignments in Java and an integrated development environment (class browser, editor, compiler, execution, etc.) suitable for novice programmers. While greenfoot supports the full Java language, it is especially useful for programming exercises that have a visual element. In greenfoot object visualisation and object interaction are the key elements. If you know BlueJ and a microworld framework (like Karel the Robot or the AP Marine Biology Case Study) consider greenfoot as the best from both: object interaction (BlueJ) and object visualisation (microworlds).

The Journal of Computing Sciences in Colleges contains the conference proceedings for each of the regional conference sponsored by CCSC. It is distributed to faculty in over 200 colleges. Past issues of the journal have included articles such as: CS Accreditation Update Putting More Science into Computer Science I Teaching Ada at the Senior Level Ethical and Professional Issues in Computing Closed Laboratories in an Entry-Level C Programming Course Computing Curricula at a Community College Conducting User-Friendly Internet Workshops Campus Data Networks: A Case Study Non-Isomorphic AVL-Trees Experiences with Scheme in a Liberal Arts Computing Course

There is open access to the CCSC archive section of the Digital Library. For your convienence, you can also access the library by conference proceeding. Note: You need an ACM account to access these documents. If you don't have one you can sign up for a free account, it is simple and easy!

The Consortium for Computing Sciences in Colleges is a non-profit organization focused on promoting quality computer-oriented curricula as well as effective use of computing in smaller institutions of higher learning which are typically non-research in orientation. It supports activities which assist faculty in making appropriate judgments concerning computing resources and educational applications of computer technology. Because departments in smaller colleges and universities are usually small and not highly specialized, the Consortium also encourages the sharing of expertise, effective curricula and efficient technological applications. The Consortium is concerned with the advancement of major programs in both Computer Science and Computer Information Systems, and with the use of computers in the Liberal Arts and Sciences.

Computer Science: Principles is a new course under development that seeks to broaden participation in computing and computer science. Development is being led by a team of computer science educators organized by the College Board and the National Science Foundation.

The aim of this project is to create an AspectJ library making it possible to enforce Java coding policies and to express some of the constraints and semantics of UML directly in the code, making it more expressive and allowing these constraints and semantics to be checked either at compile time or at runtime. The library currently supports semantics related to accessibility, design by contract, relations between objects and the nature of the state of objects.

Welcome to the UC-WISE module for CS10. This is where we will be hosting all of our lab guides and materials. Feel free to look around and play with the lab materials! The main website (http://inst.eecs.berkeley.edu/~cs10) will host the readings and the semester schedule, while the bSpace site (http://bspace.berkeley.edu) will be used for announcements and forums.

Do you wish that you could... extend the excitement of the SIGCSE conferences to your locale? share your ideas and problems with colleagues more than once a year? have a local organization that encouraged computing faculty in your area to meet? Because the SIGCSE Board believes that many people will say yes to these questions, we approved an initiative to encourage the formation of SIGCSE chapters. The process for starting an ACM SIGCSE Chapter is straight forward. Information on this process can be found at Starting an ACM Chapter.
