This course may introduce a second high level language and typically focuses on data structures and some algorithms. We call this CS Fundamentals II. 3. Object-oriented courses. About a third of the programs had a separate course in object- oriented programming. Many of those that did not have such a course had at least an introduction to OOP in the first two courses. 4. Algorithms. This course is sometimes taught as primarily a mathematics course and some programs teach it with very little programming. We nevertheless classified it

Metrics for the health ofan ecosystem will naturally incorporate intersectionality and complexity beyond traditionalrecruitment & retention data [12].However, despite these positive shifts from the limits of the lockstep “pipeline” to the morecapacious and humane “ecosystem,” metaphors about fostering persistence and thriving are, as arule, largely confined to the realms of STEM.
