of a computer. Most students onlyinteract with the graphical user interface, and therefore possess little understanding of the actualcode running the programs they use daily. The first class introducing such coding conceptsprovides a significant challenge to many because of the various concepts that need to be learnedquickly. The students must not only learn the basics of whatever programming language they areutilizing but also the fundamentals of programming a computer. It benefits the students toprovide opportunities to learn coding interactively both inside and outside of prescribed classtime. Difficulties arise in implementing in-class active learning strategies from the beginning ofterm when these first-time students must quickly
