Longitudinal studies will be conducted to assess the long-termimpact of the methodology on programming proficiency. Additionally, integrating peer mentoringprograms and leveraging technology to provide asynchronous access to lab content will furtherenhance the scalability and effectiveness of the approach.

LogicIntroductionFirst-time coders must not only overcome the difficulties in learning a programming language’ssyntax, but they must also develop the crucial sense of logic required to solve problems via code.Instructors provide the foundation during lectures on conditional statements, loops, andfunctions, each of which is required in most elementary programming courses. Beyond examsand homework, projects are frequently assigned to reinforce these logical ideas. Commonprojects focus on user inputs and decision-making; for example, creating an interactive game ofblackjack where the player interacts via text with the software (e.g., “would you like to hit orstand?”). It may be difficult for students to visualize what is happening with their codes ortroubleshoot

, chemistry, and physics—subjects that heavily influenceacademic persistence and success. Standardized test scores and placement exams are frequentlyemployed to allocate students into these courses. However, these traditional systems are oftenplagued by limitations, including biases inherent to standardized tests, delays in transcriptprocessing, and insufficient communication regarding the importance of placement assessments.Underrepresented student groups often encounter these challenges more acutely, receivingcritical placement test information while still completing high school, a time when competingpriorities can obscure the significance of these assessments. As a result, students may bemisplaced into courses that do not align with their academic
