The development of computer outreach opportunities for learning (COOL) project for secondary schools to provide computer programming education is discussed. The COOL project is a software development curriculum modules pilot program for secondary teachers to provide students with a better understanding of the software development field. The project also helps teachers in dispeling misconceptions and increasing the number and diversity of the students continuing their studies in preparation for software development careers. The COOL project has a freshman component fro incoming ASU students, consisting of placement test on computer skills expected for the introduction to engineering design course and the beginning course of Java.
