Teaching

I've led different undergraduate and graduate level courses as a graduate teaching assistant at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU-Africa) and The African Centre of Excellence in Data Science (ACEDS), as well as certain advanced level high school math and physics courses. The majority of the classes I've covered have been about the fundamentals of software engineering, problem solving, computer systems, and big data analytics.

This is an annual 4-week intensive orientation course for newly admitted graduate students to CMU-Africa. During this time, we teach students the fundamentals of Java programming, Linux programming fundamentals, and time management skills.

04-330 Foundations of Sofware Engineering and Problem SolvingLearn more..

This course explores the discipline of computer science through a hands-on focus on practical programming skills. Topics include algorithm development, problem solving (decomposition and synthesis), program design, data representation, arithmetic and logical expressions, input/output operations, basic user interfaces, and object-oriented programming and design, with an emphasis on developing good programming habits. Intensive programing assignments are required. The programming involves understanding and analyzing a set of requirements for a problem, formulating a solution, and implementing that solution on the computer along with tests that show that the program achieves its goals. These programs can be intensive and fun, and are designed to provide the student with a clear understanding of principals needed to work with the computer in the future.
