Teaching Philosophy Statement

 

My goal is to make each class as enjoyable as possible! I use project based learning approach to teach. In other words, I work on a series of real-world scenario-based problems. After discussing each problem in high level, I expect the students to code along with me in the class.

 

My exams will contain a mix of multiple choice & fill-in-the-blank questions and one or two coding questions. Since I focus on the big picture and problem solving skills, I encourage the students to read the book to get the complete details. You will work on one activity in each class and one or more problems as the weekly assignment. I expect a typical student to spend 3-4 hours every week for the homework. There will be plenty of help available to the students (my office hours, TA office hours & CSMC) - use them effectively to avoid frustration & wasting time - make it an enjoyable learning experience!
