  1. CSCI 1301 Principles of Computer Science I Syllabus

  2. Instructor Information • Instructor: Rasanjalee DM • E-Mail: dmrhimali@gsu.edu • Website: http://cs.gsu.edu/~dmrhimali/index.php?pg=teaching

  3. Goals of the course • Foundations of programming with an emphasis on the design, construction, and analysis of media. • Introduce students to the study of computer science. • Recognize that all media are published in digital formats that can be manipulated by computer programs. • Explore machine representation of data. • Read, understand, and make alterations to small computer programs that manipulate data and communicate tasks. • Design and write small computer programs that manipulate media files. • Process simple data structures using iteration and decision statements. • Process strings and text files. • Understand imperative, functional, and object-oriented programming paradigms. • Appreciate the complexity of algorithms and the limits of computing.

  4. Text(s): • Introduction to Computing and Programming in Python, A Multimedia Approach, 3rd Edition, Author(s): Guzdial & Ericson; ISBN: 978-0-13-292351-4; Press: Prentice-Hall, 2012. • Online resources: • http://coweb.cc.gatech.edu/mediaComp-teach#Python

  5. Course Grading • Labs and Assignments 30% • Attendance and Quizzes 10% • Midterm Exams(2) 30% • Final Exam 30% • Letter Grade Distribution: • 90-100 A • 80-89 B • 70-79 C • 60-69 D • Below 60 F

  6. Attendance Policy • Attendance is required. One point is taken off from final numerical grade of each absence. • Students are responsible for material covered in each days class including in-class exercises, as well as for assignments made and schedule changes announced in class.

  7. Make-Up Policy • If, for sufficient reason, a student must miss a scheduled test or exam, it is the students responsibility to contact the instructor at least 24 hours before the test or exam. The instructor may schedule a makeup test or exam. • Quizzes, in-class exercises, and homework assignments may not be made up. Each assignment has a due date, and points may be deducted for material turned in late. 20% credit will be taken off per day late. Assignments more than 5 academic days late will not be graded. Quizzes may be given on any class day, and will cover reading assignments, lectures, programming assignments, and other materials.
