Abstract: Peter Klemperer will be presenting a teaching demonstration on the topic of Binary Search Trees. Learning Goals for the talk include: common operations on the Binary Search Tree, terminology, algorithms for the implementation of common operations, and Big-O analysis of the efficiency of common binary search tree operations. Following the example learning activity, Peter will be discussing the pedagogical reasoning behind this lesson's specific approach.
