How Should We Spend $4 Billion on Computer Science Education?
This to discuss their career paths, explain concepts of coding, and even help coach the school’s robotics team.
For Gady, this also means new paradigms for her own teaching. She doesn’t have the time to keep up with the rapid changes in technology, like 3-D printing and Google Glass. “I can’t possibly learn CAD, apps, all that stuff,” Gady explained. But with a resource like Skype in the Classroom, Gady says, “I don’t have to be an expert any more.”ulia Freeland

The biggest fallacy about computer science, especially computer science education – is that it operates in a vacuum. Back when computer science was in its infancy a well-known adage was, “garbage in – garbage out.” Computer science is actually less hard science and more soft or behavioral science (or discipline).
Working off this assumption (which would be hard pressed to be disputed since the holy grail of computer science is ‘Artificial Intelligence’), I wonder how many accompanying soft sciences are taught with it; sociology especially. Computer science is really another way of communicating, and isn’t sociology all about the interaction between individual people.
Long story short … use the money to create a curriculum integrating sociology with computer science. By doing that I think we would see much more humanistic results coming from those we wish to make computer scientists. And isn’t that the purpose of education in the first place … regardless of the subject or focus.
