摘要：

This case study reveals Daniel Webster College's experience igniting student enthusiasm for the computer sciences by combining complex game development with innovative classroom management techniques during the freshman year. In this paper we discuss CS1 and CS2 game motif exercises which have dramatically accelerated student progress at DWC by stimulating independent study, cooperative learning, rapid knowledge assimilation and teamwork. Accelerated learning at DWC appears possible because game development creates enthusiasm and a strong work ethic among DWC students. We share student testimonies of their extraordinary freshman year experience.
