Titterton, Nathaniel; Lewis, Colleen M.; Clancy, Michael J. – Computer Science Education, 2010
Lab-centric instruction emphasizes supervised, hands-on activities by substituting lab for lecture time. It combines a multitude of pedagogical techniques into the format of an extended, structured closed lab. We discuss the range of benefits for students, including increased staff interaction, frequent and varied self-assessments, integrated…
