Background

Give the title of your exercise, which may include the name of the topic you are covering, or some other catchy title.

Discovering A Sorting Procedure

Too often, we teach beginning programming students how to sort. It is better if they discover how to sort on their own. We should encourage them to try sorting methods with cards and blocks and then have them develop written procedures..

Participants and props

How many students will participate? What else do you need (e.g., old tennis ball, Powerpoint slides, software).
