About Integration in Teaching College Mathematics and Computer Programming
Yuri Yatsenko
This article deals with some challenges in teaching university mathematics and computer science courses. Colleges, textbooks and teaching techniques separate these areas, but students often take these courses simultaneously. Modem learning theories recommend that the teaching should be integrated in such cases. It does not mean that the basic subjects should be changed, but teachers should be aware of potential problems and how to avoid them.
