1 Who am I?
I have taught various courses, including:
- CS 300T - Computers in Society
- CS 333 - Programming and Problem Solving
- CS 330 - Object Oriented Programming and Design
- CS 350 - Introduction to Software Engineering
- CS 410 - Professional Workforce Development I
- CS 411W - Professional Workforce Development II
- CS 417 - Computational Methods & Software
Now… I finally get to design and teach this course, i.e., CS 263 (Python for Programmers)!
Most of my free time is spent writing Python 3 code, tweaking my Vim configuration, or learning even more math… for fun.
Sometimes I find time to play a video game or two or, more likely, watch my wife play a video game.
2 Asking Questions…!
If you have taken a class with me before, you are have heard me emphasize the importance of questions. As we move through the semester, and questions materialize, we have:
- a discussion board
- my office hours (which include network conferencing)
- email <tkennedy@odu.edu>
Be sure to ask questions.
