Abstract :
Using the general guidelines for online teaching and learning as a backdrop, we have investigated best practices that are effective specifically in the context of computer science courses that involve extensive programming and hands-on laboratory explorations. In this paper, we describe our preliminary effort in this direction. More specifically, we describe the strategy we have used in planning, designing, developing, delivering, and assessing the best practices for a course in programming languages.
