Starting with Scratch (literally) in CS 1 .

2007

Harvard College

Introduction to the intellectual enterprises of computer science and the art of

programming. This course

teaches students how to think algorithmically and solve problems efficiently. Topics

include abstraction,

algorithms, encapsulation, data structures, databases, memory management, security,

software development,

virtualization, and websites. Languages include C, PHP, and JavaScr ipt plus SQL, CSS,

and HTML. Problem

sets inspired by real-world domains of biology, cryptography, finance, forensics, and

gaming. Designed for

concentrators and non-concentrators alike, with or without prior programming experience.

Computer Science 164: Mobile Software Engineering 2012

Harvard College

Introduction to principles of software engineering for mobile devices and best practices,

including code

reviews, source control, and unit tests. Topics include Ajax, encapsulation, event

handling, HTTP, memory

management, MVC, object-oriented design, and user experience. Languages include HTML5,

JavaScript,

Objective-C, and PHP. Projects include mobile web apps and native iOS apps.

David J. Malan / 5

Computer Science 15: Data Structures 2002 2005

Tufts University

A second course in computer science. Data structures and algorithms are studied through

major programming

projects in the C++ programming language. Topics include linked lists, trees, graphs,

dynamic storage

allocation, and recursion.

Computer Science E-1: Understanding Computers and the Internet 1999

Harvard Extension School

This course is all about understanding: understanding what s going on inside your

computer when you flip on

the switch, why tech support has you constantly rebooting your computer, how everything

you do on the

Internet can be watched by others, and how your computer can become infected with a worm

just by being

turned on. Designed for students who use computers and the Internet every day but don t

fully understand

how it all works, this course fills in the gaps. Through lectures on hardware, software,

the Internet,

multimedia, security, privacy, website development, programming, and more, this course

takes the hood off

of computers and the Internet so that students understand how it all works and why.

Through discussions of

current events, students are exposed also to the latest technologies.

Computer Science E-75: Building Dynamic Websites 2008

Harvard Extension School

Today s websites are increasingly dynamic. Pages are no long er static HTML files but

instead generated by

scripts and database calls. User interfaces are more seamless, with technologies like

Ajax replacing traditional

page reloads. This course teaches students how to build dynamic websites with Ajax and

with Lin ux, Apache,

MySQL, and PHP (LAMP), one of today s most popular frameworks. Students learn how to set

up domain

names with DNS, how to structure pages with XHTML and CSS, how to program in JavaScript

and PHP,

how to configure Apache and MySQL, how to desig n and query databases with SQL, how to

use Ajax with

both XML and JSON, and how to build mashups. The course explores issues of security,

scalability, and

cross-browser support and also discusses enterprise -level deployments of websites,

including third-party

hosting, virtualization, colocation in data centers, firewalling, and load -balancing.

Computer Science E-76: Building Mobile Applications 2011

Harvard Extension School

Today s applications are increasingly mobile. Computers are no longer confined to desks

and laps but instead

live in our pockets and hands. This course teaches students how to build mobile apps for

Android and iOS,

two of today s most popular platforms, and how to deploy them in Android Market and the

App Store.

Students learn to write native apps for Android using Eclipse and the Android SDK, to

write native apps for

iPhones, iPod touches, and iPads using Xcode and the iOS SDK, and to write web apps for

both platforms.

Computer Science E-259: XML with Java, Java Servlet, and JSP 2004 2008

Harvard Extension School

This course introduces XML as a key enabling technology in Java -based applications.

Students learn the

fundamentals of XML and its derivatives, including DTD, SVG, XML Schema, XPath, XQuery,

XSL -FO, and

XSLT. Students also gain experience with programmatic interfaces to XML like SAX and DOM,

standard

APIs like JAXP and TrAX, and industry -standard software like Ant, Tomcat, Xerces, and

Xalan. The course

acquaints students with J2EE, including JavaServer Pages (JSP) and Java Servlet, and also

explores HTTP,

SOAP, web services, and WSDL. The course s projects focus on the implementation and

deployment of

these technologies.

Computer Science S-1: Great Ideas in Computer Science with Java 2003 2010

Harvard Summer School

This course is an introduction to the most important discoveries and intellectual

paradigms in computer

science, designed for students with little or no previous background. We explore problem -

solving methods

and algorithm development using such high-level programming languages as Java and

JavaScript. Students

learn how to design, code, debug, and document programs using techniques of good

programming style in a

Linux-based environment. This course presents an integrated view of computer systems,

from sw itching

circuits and machine language through compilers and GUI design. We examine theoretical

and practical

limitations related to unsolvable and intractable computational problems, and the social

and ethical dilemmas

presented by such issues as software unreliability and invasion of privacy.
