Abstract
This paper describes why the study of algorithms should be a fundamental component of the standard introductory computer science (CS) curriculum. By shifting the focus of basic CS classes from implementation to concept , educators can greatly enhance student understanding and course relevance despite rapidly-changing paradigms, technologies, and programming languages. Teaching algorithms also encourages the development of other more generalized skills, including the scientific method, problem-solving, modeling, and technical communication.
