Abstract

In 2001, The Joint Task Force on Computing Curricula defined model curricula for a computer science undergraduate that specified the core learning units that a student should take over a four year period. The authors have found that the use of a single, state of the art, interactive development environment across these curricula can both explicitly and implicitly continually teach Java best practices. The net result is a graduating student who can productively step into an entry level computer science position.
