My name is Ann-Marie Smith. I am one of five full-time faculty members who teach Computing Science courses at DCCC. I accepted the teaching position in the summer of 1999 because I found it is what I enjoy doing most. My job is incredibly rewarding, and I thoroughly enjoy the teaching and learning experience.

The courses I teach most often include Introduction to Information Technology (CS 100), Introduction to Computer Science (CS 101), Multimedia Graphics and Design (IMM 110), Web Page Design & Development (IMM 120), Audio and Video for Multimedia (IMM 201), and Portfolio Development (CS 250).
