Va was designated as a flagship institution by NSF
to develop an undergraduate computer science curriculum model which
would have national impact. Jane joined the Computer Science
department in July, 1993 to help with the development, implementation
and evaluation of the new undergraduate CS curriculum. This project
has lead to the UVa model to be examined by many schools in the United
States and several foreign countries. Jane is the contact person and
coordinator for curriculum dissemination and adaptation. She also
works closely with the graduate and undergraduate Teaching Assistants
who form the cornerstone of the new curriculum model.
