Comments/Documentation

I’m wondering if it is possible to include more of an emphasis on using comments/documenting code. It’s a CSTA standard and one of our Wyoming standards also. While comments are sometimes used (and very effectively for helping students to structure the larger projects) I find that they are easy for students to miss. It would be lovely to see more comments in simpler activities, and maybe some mini bubbles/lessons on why documenting code is important. Ideally, the comment code would be at the top of every drawer in the coding toolbox (both in CSD and in later courses of Fundamentals).

Hi @bsanchez,

These are some good suggestions. You might want to send them along to support. They listen to feedback such as this for future iterations of the curriculum.
