Grand Challenge
Rural Reimagined Faculty Success Story with Computer Science
Over the fall semester of 2019, Dr. Eberle, Mr. Brown, and Mrs. Jennings incorporated
the Grand Challenge into three sections of a capstone course for Computer Science
majors through approaching real world problems with computer science. Students found
a Grand Challenge problem, created mock-ups of software products that would address
the problem, and presented them. Dr. Eberle stated that he really “liked the fact
that we were doing something for the community,” and he appreciates the Grand Challenge
because it gave the students the opportunity to use their skills to solve real world
problems in an exciting way. Wings up, Computer Science!
