Course Content Goals

The CS1 content area will be designed to be LANGUAGE INDEPENDENT; thus teaching the range of computer science concepts normally taught in a CS1 course using a language independent presentation to present general language concepts and psuedocode to present the initial introduction to the general syntax. Each topic will then provide links to language specific sections that can be independently developed for multiple langauges. Thus the CS1 content will be easily adapted to an evolving set of specific langauges.

Additionally, each topic will try to be written as a somewhat independent chunk; so individual instructors can make their own decisions on presentation sequencing (such as objects first vs. procedural first presentations).
