Learning by Doing means more Assignments and less lecture
For an introductory course in Summer, I prefer to have multiple, in-class, lower-stakes projects instead of fewer big projects. It keeps students actively learning and less likely to freeze up and be overwhelmed. That said, this is a lot to learn in such a short time. Missing class is not advised.
Quiz recall is very important for both natural language learning and computer language learning.
Assignments
Asterisk (*) by due date means that you will be expected to submit simple assignments by the end of class session.
I will always allow extra time at the end of a session when submission is expected during class.
