I've taught computer science for 30 years. I have extensive experience in curriculum design and implementation. My resources have taken students from introductory programming to Advanced Placement success! My computer programming team had over 100 students from grades 9 to 12 and we regularly made it to the provincial finals. During the last few years I have had 90+ students write the Waterloo Computing Competition (CCC). On the computer engineering side, I designed the curriculum for an introductory engineering course and I also ran a FIRST robotics team for 5 years.

Java Layouts Editable Unit
Layouts have to be one of the most annoying and tricky Java classes. This is a team assignment. Well, almost! Students work in twos, threes or fours depending on your class requirements. In the first part they each choose one of the assigned layouts and get to work figuring it out. In the second assignment, students stay in the same teams so they can share their layout code solutions within their team. They each create a new project utilizing the last two layouts: CardLayout and BorderLayout.

Creating a JFrame in Java Editable Unit
I had a hard time introducing the Java Frame to my students. There seemed to be so many things to teach all at once! So, I created a three-part assignment that builds a simple JFrame one step at a time. This first assignment starts with a simple shell - 2 Java files I created. It has them explore how the driver class and the frame work together and they make simple changes to the frame based on the example provided. The second assignment demonstrates how to add and control a simple dialogue box

Advanced Python Turtle Concepts Editable Unit 11
One of the most frustrating parts about teaching Python is that it has very little 'glitz and glamour' to entertain kids and keep their interest! Yes, of course, there are kids who desperately want to learn to code and they'll take your class anyway, but most kids need a carrot or two to keep them interested! The Turtle module adds that special ZIP that kids crave! That's the purpose of this unit. It starts off a bit dry with user input, lists and tuples, but it quickly gets more interesting whe

Experience
I've taught computer science for 30 years. I have extensive experience in curriculum design and implementation. My resources have taken students from introductory programming to Advanced Placement success! My computer programming team had over 100 students from grades 9 to 12 and we regularly made it to the provincial finals.

On the computer engineering side, I designed the curriculum for an introductory engineering course and I also ran a FIRST robotics team for 5 years.
Teaching style
I have taught using differentiated instruction in a flipped classroom model long before either of them were buzzwords. Never give answers - only ask more questions! Students need to get there under their own steam otherwise they haven't earned the knowledge and it won't stick! You can't learn how to drive a car in a classroom. You need to be behind the wheel and experience the reality and then try to analyze what you did. The point of programming is to use it as a tool to help students learn how to learn. The language is just the vehicle.
Awards & shining teacher moments
The second year of our participation in FIRST Robotics we won Canada and advanced to the final championships in Houston Texas. Two of my CCC students made it to the University of Waterloo to participate in the Canadian Computing Olympiad and one of them made it onto the IOC team that competed in Thailand.
My own education history
I have a Bachelor of Education and a Bachelor of Fine Arts. I taught myself how to program and as a result of my own journey I understand how students learn programming.
