Traditionally, the introductory computer graphics course in computer science has focused on fundamental algorithms and techniques for creating images and animations. This was reflected in ACM/IEEE Curriculum 91 [TUC 91]. Computer graphics and similar subjects are expected to play a larger role in undergraduate computer science in the future [CUN 98], and this is being discussed in the ACM/IEEE Curriculum 2001 project. In the last few years the approach to teaching this course has changed to take advantage of more powerful graphics tools. This paper describes an approach to the introductory computer graphics course that increases its value as a tool for the student in the sciences, mathematics, or
