Template-Based Progamming

Template-Based programming is a method of assigning projects which require use of high-level programming or scripting language, without requiring the student to spend time with the overhead of applications development.

For details on the method and the rationale behind it, see the paper, "Template-Based Programming in Chemical Engineering Courses", Proceedings of the 2001 ASEE Annual Conference & Exposition. American Society for Engineering Education, 2001.

This page is maintained to provide templates for other instructors interested in working with this approach.  All I ask for return is that you drop me an email letting me know you are using them, and provide templates you develop for posting on this site.
