In her introductory computer science class, Dr. Giulia Alberini asks her approximately 600 students whether they want to be “code crafters” or “problem solvers.” The first group will write two midterms and a final coding project. Instead of the final project, “problem solvers” prepare a technical interview that simulates an authentic real-world experience. This choice allows students to work to their strengths, be it programming alone or interviewing with two members of the instructional team. Listen in to hear how Giulia gives her students opportunities to practice with low-stakes exercises, manages her team, and meets her goal of keeping students engaged and motivated in a large classroom setting.
