Riassunto

For one or two-semester introductory CS1 Java courses taken by CS majors and non-majors.

Based on his inspiring lecture style, author Frank Carrano’s new text, Imagine! Java, engages students immediately with vivid “what if” examples and everyday analogies that keep them engaged and wanting to learn more.

Carrano starts students slowly by presenting concepts in small, manageable chunks that force students to focus on one core concept at a time. Carrano uses engaging repetitive examples to reinforce learning before moving on to more complicated concepts. This approach offers the student an opportunity to establish patterns they can use in their own programs and ultimately develop a more intuitive and sustainable understanding of the programming concepts.
