WELCOME TO CSCI 0150

CS0150 is one of the introductory Computer Science courses offered at Brown University.

This course introduces students to Computer Science through object-oriented design and programming, using Java and the JavaFX graphics library. You will use these tools for building interactive programs with graphical user interfaces. CS0150 reinforces concepts with practical exercises in weekly lab sessions and with challenging and engaging programming assignments, such as Doodle Jump and Tetris!

There are no prerequisites for CS0150 and the course expects no prior programming experience.

This Week in CS15 (Nov 26 - Dec 2)

Labs & Sections

Lab/section is a time to review course content in a smaller group setting and practice applying those concepts through partnered labs. Each section will meet once a week and will be led by two TAs with around SOME NUMBER of students, so it is also a time to work closely with and get to know some of your fellow CS15-ers.

A typical lab/section consists of short group check in, a fun SRC activity, and then either a presentation and some smaller group activities to review concepts or a lab.

Code-Along

CS15 Code-Alongs are your one stop shop for getting hands-on experience with guided coding exercises in order to better understand the concepts of OOP! We know that lectures can at times feel very abstract, and that we sometimes need examples in code in order to fully understand how these concepts work.

Throughout the semester, we will host various code-alongs in order to assist you all with the skills necessary for succeeding in the course!

CONCEPTUAL TA HOURS

Confused about an idea discussed in lecture or in a project handout? If we don't have to look at your code to answer your question, conceptual hours are a great place to meet other students and talk to a TA. Your question will get answered much faster here than at the debugging hours line.



DEBUGGING HOURS

Debugging Hours are a great resource to discuss 1-on-1 with a TA about your code and learn how to solve your bugs; however, please be sure to check our TA Hours policy and the Ed page before getting in line at the hours website. When waiting for hours, wait near CIT 210 and a TA will come to get you!


SRC

What is SRC?

As awareness of technology's consequences increases, attention turns to how computer scientists are trained. In response, the CS department created the "Socially Responsible Computing" initiative in 2019 to integrate ethics and social impact topics broadly across its curriculum. At Brown, SRC is embedded into most major CS courses. Our goals in CS15 are to give a broad overview of today's technological landscape so that you are familiar with these concepts when you are eventually faced with ethical design decisions further down your CS journey.

How does this fit into the CS15 curriculum?

  • Mini-lectures
  • Lab activities about lecture content
  • Two extra credit discussion sections with details TBA

How can I get involved?
