CSE 8A is an introductory computer science course designed for students interested in computing. No prior programming experience is assumed. As an 8A student you will learn fundamental concepts of applied computer science using the object-oriented programming language Java.

In Fall 2008, we adopted a media computation approach to teaching computing and programming in Java. Below is a video that highlights some of what we did (also on youtube):

In Winter 2009, a group of former 8A students will be making additional media resources to show off what 8A is all about. Check back soon and you will find a lot more here!
