. The author would arguethat most careers in computer science go beyond simply sitting around programming and requiremany other skills. The activities outlined below provide an introduction to some of these otherrequired skills. Additionally, all activities are either programming language independent orcould be tailored to whatever specific programming language you wish (or be done using genericpseudo-code).Two of the activities presented here, the Binary, Octal, and Hexadecimal Initial Keychains andBasic Networking, Message Passing, and Security with Party Hats and Candy, were inspired bythe Computer Science (CS) Unplugged website 1, 2. CS Unplugged 1, 2 provided videos,worksheets, and teaching guides to a variety of computer science

Particularly mathematicians preferred to solve the problem by hand if the problem doesn’t appear to be too complicated.Research Question 3Numerical value calculations’ of power series or error term graphs/values is one of the calculusand numerical analysis concepts that some of the engineering and mathematics majors learn duringtheir undergraduate or graduate education. Use of technology to calculate the Numerical values ofpower series or error term graphs/values of functions are not taught by calculus professors at everyuniversity; however it can play an important role in engineering and mathematics courses to betaken later or students’ future careers.

In addition to a résumé, game developers are often re-quired to show a visually impressive portfolio that provides evidence to future employers of theirdevelopment skills. Students understand this and therefore take the class seriously. However,they have had notorious difficulties with finding professional-looking assets for their games.While our university contains degrees in new media, few students possess skills in 3D animation
