The Computer Science faculty at New Mexico Highlands University has developed degree programs in Computer Science and Computer Information Systems that meet the needs of largely, under- represented students. These students are highly motivated but have been poor foudations in problem solving, internal model development, and abstraction skills - all important in understanding the concepts of Computer Science. This project augments the present curriculum in Computer Science and Computer Information Systems by adding computer laboratories to a number of the courses. For each laboratory, exercises and computational experiments are being developed to help the students realize the abstractions they find so difficult. The goal is to allow more students to graduate with strong computer science backgrounds and a sense of confidence.

新墨西哥高地大学的计算机科学学院开发了计算机科学和计算机信息系统的学位课程，以满足大部分代表不足的学生的需求。这些学生积极性很高，但在解决问题、内部模型开发和抽象技能方面基础很差--所有这些都对理解计算机科学的概念很重要。该项目通过在一些课程中增加计算机实验室，增加了现有的计算机科学和计算机信息系统课程。对于每个实验室，正在开发练习和计算实验，以帮助学生认识到他们认为如此困难的抽象。其目标是让更多的学生毕业时拥有强大的计算机科学背景和自信。
