Goals

From

All contained content must be open, free for non-comercial use, Creative Commons licensed.  Do not submit any content that is licensed or copywritted under any other restrictions.

The long term goal of the content is to provide enough depth for each of these classes that external texts may not be required.

The content shall be organized as much as possible into relatively independent "chunks" so that anyone is free to organize their presentation and sequencing of the material as seems appropriate to their style of professional views.

As the content matures, it will also contain embedded flash animations, java applets, sound, and video to enhance the presentation of the topics.

Sections on software engineering and languages will present all conceptual material as "language independent" then followed by examples links for specific langauges.  This way the content can be adapted to use as languages evolve and for individual school preferences.

Similarly, all concepts will be presented independent of any particular application or IDE.  Conceptual sections can be followed up with links to examples pages for a particular application or IDE so that the conceptual content is independent and adaptable to different applications or IDEs.
