Mastery: developing (Level 2)(based on Certificate)

  • Course syllabi, assignment sequences, and handouts — independently design and revise for undergraduate and introductory graduate computer science courses aligned with learning outcomes.
  • Lectures on intermediate topics such as algorithms, software engineering, and database systems — prepare and deliver with minimal oversight to undergraduate cohorts in a university setting.
  • Student class work, laboratory submissions, and written papers — evaluate using self-developed rubrics that reflect current disciplinary standards in computer science.
  • Examinations covering multiple course modules — compile, administer, and grade independently, ensuring alignment with stated course objectives and institutional academic integrity policies.
  • Grade books, attendance logs, and required departmental records — maintain consistently and submit on schedule through institutional administrative systems.
  • Professional conferences and peer-reviewed journals — engage with regularly to incorporate emerging computing technologies and pedagogical methods into course delivery.
  • Office hours and advising appointments — conduct on a scheduled basis, offering substantive guidance on academic progress and project development to undergraduate students.
  • Computer-based training software and development environment tools — integrate into laboratory instruction to provide students with authentic coding and debugging experiences.
  • Instructional methods and course pacing — adapt in response to formative assessment data and observed student performance trends across a semester.
  • Collaborative course planning discussions — contribute constructively with departmental colleagues to align course sequencing and prerequisite structures within the CS curriculum.
