There is Magic in My Code.....teaching your computer to do card tricks
Imagine handing a deck of cards to someone and they input the top card into the computer and it tells them where any other card in the deck is located? Imagine doing that without any type of data structures.Imagine a first semester Java student's surprise when their computer learns these tricks!!! Imagine the students telling you the top card and you proceed to call the remaining cards in the deck in order. This material will last 2 to 3 weeks depending on the programming skills of the students.

Teaching style
Use anything that gives the students real world exposure. Administer much of my assignments electronically through either Schoology or personal Moodle website. I have also used magic in both my math classes as well as computer science to teach certain skills.
