At Villanova University we have a popular course for non-majors focused on problem solving with computers, taught using our own lecture and lab materials. This paper seeks to describe the essence of the problem solving course by focusing on an assignment that is given after the first unit of the course has been completed. This assignment, writing an essay about how someone uses a computer to solve a problem, requires the application of most of the topics of the first third of the course and is very representative of the spirit of the course as a whole.

This panel is directed to members of the SIGCSE community who would like to learn more about the places to publish in computing education and how to get published there. This panel brings together conference, journal, and bookseries editors to share their insights as "gatekeepers" of their respective publication venues.
