Objects of Interest: A Lesson Study on Classes
Lesson Study Resources
Description: An exploration of how student interviews and equity data informs a more human-centered lesson on classes and object-oriented programming in introductory computer science. The team designed a game-based class modeling activity that used “windows and mirrors” to help students connect OOP concepts to their own experiences while learning from peers’ varied design choices.
