My name is Marty Stepp. I work as a computer science lecturer at the University of Washington. I teach intro programming, web programming, and software engineering. Google recently highlighted my web programming resources in their Google Code for Educators initiative.

I am the lead author of an introductory web programming textbook called Web Programming Step by Step, with Jessica Miller and Victoria Kirst from the University of Washington. I am also co-author of an introductory Java programming textbook with Stuart Reges titled Building Java Programs: A Back to Basics Approach (now in its 2nd edition!). I wrote an online tool for practicing Java problems to accompany the Java textbook, called Practice-It!. I am also first author of a C# textbook titled Computing Fundamentals with C#.

From 2004 - 2006, I worked as a computer science lecturer at the University of Washington, Tacoma. Before that I spent a year as a developer at Microsoft on the Excel team.

I got a Master's degree in computer science at the University of Arizona in 2003. I did research in geometric algorithms and security, taught 5 courses over four semesters, and was a teaching assistant nine times. My younger brother Mike Stepp is working on a Ph.D. in CS at the University of California, San Diego.
