Course Description This course aims for students to improve their problem solving skills by means of computer programming. Given a problem, students are expected to produce a solution by using appropriate methods and tools to plan the project in which they analyze, design. implement and test the software they produce. The course activities will help students to improve their team work and presentation skills After forming teams, students will work on at least 3 different projects.
