DESCRIPTION:Shardul Chiplunkar and Clément Pit-Claudel \nIn this lunch&
 LEARN session\, Shardul Chiplunkar and Clément Pit-Claudel will share s
 ome generalizable lessons they learned from running the first edition of S
 oftware Construction in Fall 2023. Software Construction is a new course i
 n the undergraduate computer and communication sciences curriculum at EPFL
 .\n\nThe course targets three core concepts—functional programming\, rea
 l-world engineering\, and correctness—and its design is informed by four
  principles—students should learn by doing\, assignments should be self-
 motivating\, knowledge should be built incrementally\, and students should
  see progress over time.\n\nThey will illustrate how they realized these c
 oncepts and principles with practical examples of course materials and tea
 ching methods that they hope will serve as useful inspiration to others te
 aching similar courses.\n\nLastly\, they will present some encouraging pre
 liminary data about course outcomes and share their speculations about exp
 eriments for its future evolution.\n\n- - - - - - -\n\nThis event is geare
 d towards anyone who teaches at EPFL. Join us in person or via zoom for th
 is new session from 12h15 to 13h00. Registration at the link.\n
