Problem sets

[jaeyk]

In my teaching experience, the best way to learn programming is doing it. I'd rather assign real-world examples as problem sets rather than assigning some course materials (for some sessions I admit that this would be necessary and more effective). In addition, if possible, I'd like to code review and give them more direct feedback on how they can improve their code. However, taking this approach requires creating our own problem sets plus setting up the code submission + review + grading structure.

I set up GitHub classroom.

I agree with this approach, but I think for the first two or three topics we can use some canned materials (e.g., for a few of the sections on fundamentals).

Where is the github classroom link? I don't seem to have access to it?

re1: As I pointed out, I'm flexible with this approach. For the simpler tasks, as you said, canned materials could be good. (What specifical examples do you have in your mind?)

re2: @nickkuipers https://github.com/PS239T This is the GitHub classroom link.

For Spring 2019, this is the link: https://github.com/PS239T/spring_2021 You should have access to both.
