A discovery-based capstone experience
John A. Trono · Journal of computing sciences in colleges · 2008
Most computer science students must successfully complete several large software projects as part of their undergraduate course work. Many institutions offer a senior-level, capstone course that typically includes a semester long project that (hopefully) requires each student to consider all that they have learned before they begin. This paper presents a project that is not so allencompassing, but it is one that can reward the student, who looks beyond the problem itself, with some interesting discoveries.
