A free version of the first half of the course "Programming Methodology" called "Code in Place" will be taught again starting April 19. "Code in Place" had over 10,000 students in 120 countries learning computer programming from 900 volunteer teachers. Developed after the shelter-in-place orders, Stanford computer science faculty Chris Piech and Mehran Sahami reimagined their course for a broader online audience.
