Course Learning Agreement: CS 1900Course Learning Agreement • July 21st, 2022
Contract Type FiledJuly 21st, 2022Description: Students are given the opportunity to apply their newly gained knowledge in the field of Computer Science to a non-trivial, real-world project in industry. Students are paired with an industry supervisor to perform most of their work outside of class. The classroom portion of the course provides a forum where students can see and discuss each other's work, thereby gaining insight on the diversity of areas and positions in Computer Science. Each student is asked to do a presentation about their work and answer any questions from the audience. This gives students a rare opportunity to practice public speaking, and direction and feedback is provided on how to give a good technical presentation. Students also peer review their classmates' presentations, which gives them an opportunity to learn from their peers. Students are also asked to submit a technical report on their work and research activities through which they gain experience in technical writing.
