We present four Java projects suggested by our student that were developed in Java CS1/CS2 course. What is in interest of our students who start programming? The answer might be different from teachers or textbook approaches. Some topics include drawing, games, colors, measuring time, etc. Question can be raised if we can just monitor a process of studying by watching the development of projects. Can we as teachers learn what major interests of our students are when learning to program. We share our finding of interesting examples.
