Collegesof Engineering and Science formed a committee to revise the curriculum to focus on improvingretention in the required core math and science courses. To also accommodate limits on the numberof credit hours, the committee also eliminated a two-semester introductory engineering course tofocus on the common computational and algorithmic thinking skills development needs of allmajors in a one-semester course (Cahill, Ogilvie, and Weichold, 2020).Consequently, the first-course in engineering for entering students became an introduction toprogramming where each week consists of one hour of lecture and three hours of programminglaboratory activities. A typical laboratory activity would comprise of students working in teams of
