Content

The participants of this seminar each work on a selected topic of the annual ACM International Collegiate Programming Challenge (ICPC). This includes the conception of proposed solutions and their implementation. Participants communicate these solutions in the form of an approximately 30-minute presentation and demonstrate the resulting software. Equal emphasis is placed on (a) content-related aspects and (b) questions regarding presentation technique. In addition, a compact written elaboration summarizes the solution to the problem.

Objectives

Students will be able to adequately select appropriate programming paradigms and languages for problem solving. Reading and learning skills are acquired. The compact and effective presentation of the acquired knowledge in the form of presentation and text is learned. The student acts confidently in front of the plenum. Self-discipline, critical faculties, language skills and empathy are promoted and challenged. As listeners, the participants are able to give their fellow students critical but fair feedback on the content and formal aspects of the presentation.
