Introduction

ClassNotes+ is a project which will use a mixture of hypertext, on-line demos, class notes, video clips, special on-line "blackboard-with-audio" pieces, and pointers to the literature to support the teaching of computer science at the University of Colorado at Boulder and elsewhere.

The materials will support exploration by the students. Furthermore, ClassNotes+ will demonstrate that students can be involved in the creation of such materials as part of their education.

More details can be found in an executive summary as well as in the original proposal.

Funding

This project is currently supported by the Undergraduate Excellence Fund of the College of Engineering and Applied Science at the University of Colorado at Boulder, by the Fluor-Daniel Fund for Innovation in Teaching, and by the Communication Initiative of the University of Colorado.

Status

A first topic page, letting students explore the behavior of two "shortest-path" algorithms, is done. It will serve as prototype for other pages, providing much of the Java software that will allow us to create similar pages for other graph algorithms. This, as well as the development of a similar environment for array-based algorithms, which is almost finished, will allow us to produce more pages to support courses in data structures and algorithms and similar topics.
