Thanks for those who responded to my previous queries. It seems there is some confusion about our terminology: the course is an introductory Computer *Science* course - it looks at the non-programming side of computing, complementing a programming paper, is for majoring Computer Science students and covers computer applications, computer architecture, logic, computer theory, file organisation, etc. I would be interested to hear from others who may not have responded due to the confusing terminology.
