Computer Science (31)This project is adapting the Alice programming environment, a promising approach to improving CS retention, to a particular cultural environment. Universities in Hawaii are part of a unique environment in which the Hawaiian/Pacific Islands cultural heritage plays a large part. In this project, students are basing their open-ended larger programming projects on stories from the Hawaiian and Pacific Island treasure-trove of legends, mythology, traditions, and oral history. Students who are less mathematically-prepared or have no prior programming experience are placed into this course in order to better prepare them for the beginning programming course and subsequent courses in computer science.

计算机科学（31）这个项目是适应爱丽丝编程环境，一个有前途的方法，以提高CS保留，以特定的文化环境。夏威夷的大学是夏威夷/太平洋岛屿文化遗产发挥重要作用的独特环境的一部分。在这个项目中，学生们将他们的开放式大型编程项目建立在夏威夷和太平洋岛屿的传说，神话，传统和口述历史宝库的故事上。谁是较少的专业准备或没有以前的编程经验的学生被放置到这门课程，以更好地为他们准备开始编程课程和计算机科学的后续课程。
