This assignment on object-oriented programming has been crafted within the framework of Computing for Social Good in Education and Responsible Computing. It aims to integrate socially relevant elements into the core activities typically encountered in traditional Computer Science (CS) curricula. Extensive research suggests that integrating these topics throughout the traditional CS curriculum is more effective than segregating them into separate activities. The assignment has undergone refinement across multiple iterations over the years to address challenges such as accommodating students with varying abilities and motivations, catering to different learning styles, and mitigating frustration when tasks may seem overly challenging.

How can we translate real-world challenges into future business opportunities? How can individuals, organizations, and society learn and undergo change at the pace needed to stave off worsening problems? Today, organizations of all kinds—traditional manufacturing firms, those that extract resources, a huge variety of new start-ups, services, non-profits, and governmental organizations of all types, among many others—are tackling these very questions. For some, the massive challenges of moving towards sustainability offer real opportunities for new products and services, for reinventing old ones, or for solving problems in new ways. The course aims to provide participants with access and in-depth exposure to firms that are actively grappling with the sustainability-related issues through cases, readings and guest speakers.
