Course objectives are key skills, processes, and higher-level problem solving abilities that students demonstrate in the computational course. The course is designed for all level's of [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloom%27s_taxonomy|Bloom's taxonomy]] through basic information recall in programming exercises (level 1) to higher level creative processes (level 6) in the course project.
