A.I. as an Introduction to Research Methods in Computer Science

Abstract

While many computer science programs offer courses on research methods, such classes typically tend to be aimed at graduate students. In this paper, we propose a novel means for introducing undergraduate students to research experiences in computer science — via an introductory Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) course. Students explore the content areas typically covered in an upper-level A.I. course (heuristic search, constraint satisfaction, game-playing etc.), while also learning about the mechanics of how empirical research is conducted in this field.
