First, industry needs and current courses are probed to determine if a new course isneeded or existing course(s) should be updated. Then, pedagogy is developed and implemented(accordingly). Finally, student outcomes are assessed. Professional feedbacks and studentoutcomes are considered to improve the pedagogy. We envision that in order to fulfill thegrowing IT industry needs, multicore parallel
