Mentor responsibilities included visiting classes and givingfeedback on teaching, ensuring new faculty members became familiar with equipment and com-fortable in laboratory facilities, and helping them to understand and navigate departmental anduniversity policies. It certainly was not a perfect system, and not all of the new members of thefaculty wanted close guidance and feedback, but for the majority that did it worked out well.

reflect on their learnings with the aim of improving theirprogramming skills and the quality of their programs.Introductory programming courses have historically high attrition rates because often studentsare not sufficiently and dynamically engaged with programming tasks. In fact, failure rates of 30to 50% have been reported in literature [1]. Beginners frequently feel frustrated and disenchantedwith the subject since the challenges of learning programming appear to be too overwhelming toovercome. While laboratory components of these courses help students with getting feedbackand encouragement in the face of programming challenges, practice and motivation beyond thelab environment remain uncertain. Therefore, it is necessary to explore
