I had the good fortune in the summer of 2008 to teach COMPSCI 4, an introductory programming class using Java for non-computer science majors. The focus of the course was to present fundamental computer science concepts, such as data structures, control flow, interface design, and object-oriented programming, via video games. Students had a chance to design and program their own simple video games using the open-source FANG video game engine for Java.
