CSc 114 Schedule: ADP 2, Spring 2010
[^] CSc 114: Introduction to Computer Science
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is the planned schedule for the semester. If there's a need to make changes, I will try to do so as early as possible.

The entries for lectures link to the outlines for the relevant chapters; the lab entries link to the to relevant part of the labs page to access the handout and other materials. It's a good idea to look over the lab handout before coming to lab.

Lectures meet in MCC 105, and labs meet in MCC 209. All exams are given online in MCC 209. Generally, we will meet in MCC 105, and move to 209 later for lab.

Since this is an ADP section, we will generally do several things on one night. If an item starts with a lab exercise, meet in the lab, MCC 209. Otherwise, meet in the lecture room, MCC 105, and we'll move as the evening progresses. Exams are always the last item. They should start by 9:20, but we'll start earlier of everything else is done.
