Could #computerscience become the new #arthistory degree....? Possibly. If the job market is flooded with programmers, then it puts more pressure on programs that teach theory since it becomes more obvious that theory has little to do with day to day coding. That could then make Computer Science essentially an Art History degree, very important, but not for your job, i.e. you learn a ton, and it is very expensive, but has NOTHING TO DO WITH GETTING A JOB. ✨Pragmatic AI Labs builds courses on edX

"Left entirely to themselves, computer scientists can forget that computers are supposed to be tools that help people." —Ian Bogost If you're concerned that AI has become the tail wagging the dog in higher ed, check out "Universities Have a Computer Science Problem." While it doesn't mention AI, it's a great read for faculty and administrators grappling with big questions like: - How can we promote tech literacy across the curriculum instead of isolating it to one dedicated (and over-resourced) college or department? - How do we get students and society at large to recognize the value of disciplines whose hashtags aren't trending? - How can we ensure students graduate with the skills they need to find jobs today *and* the ability to anticipate change, pivot, and adapt—all without selling their souls? Full disclosure: I may be biased in my love for this article. I've always been a fan of Ian Bogost's work, but I didn't realize we both walked away from computer science majors to study French. This might be my favorite line in the article: "Reasoning that I could easily get a job as a computer professional no matter what it said on my degree, I decided to study other things while I had the chance." https://lnkd.in/eT_fRAJ9

Self-taught Computer Science. I've worked with various developers from different backgrounds in the market. People debate whether a computer science degree is needed or if being self-taught is enough. I listen to both sides, but accepting that a formal education is disposable is hard. You can learn new skills without attending a university. I argue that you need to spend time in a place where people work together to learn. At this point, attending university is more vital. We often think that knowing technical things makes us succeed in our jobs. We must value the relationships we build during our time at university. The soft skills we develop during this time differ from what online courses can teach us. I must have learned much more after my graduation, no doubt. I can't deny that I learned the foundations in university that made this possible. This discussion should keep going in the future because of new technologies, like generative AI. Let's see what the next generation of professionals will look like. The most important thing is how those people can face computer science challenges.

In a rapidly advancing digital era, the need for computer science education has never been more crucial. It's not just about learning to code; it's about fostering critical thinking, problem-solving skills, and preparing students for a future where technology is at the forefront of every industry. Today, we're diving deep into the reasons why educators, parents, and policymakers are recognizing the value of bringing computational thinking into the curriculum and why computer science is more than coding. The Rundown 00:36 - Moment of Zen Computations are everywhere, once you begin to look at things in a certain way. - Rudy Rucker 01:00 - ChatGPT changes in the news! 02:14 - What is Computer Science? 03:24 - What is Computational Thinking? - Computational thinking is an interrelated set of skills and practices for solving complex problems, a way to learn topics in many disciplines, and a necessity for fully participating in a computational world - Digital Promise Computational Thinking for Next Generation Science Toolkit 06:30 - In Michigan, and all over the US, there is a big focus on reaching all students with CS, especially those not currently well-represented in CS careers. Why is this important? Demographics show that 67% of AI specialists are white and 91% are men. https://lnkd.in/gwVd8XND 2023 State of CS Report 08:42 - More than a Glitch - Meredith Broussard 09:30 - Vocational models, Micro-learning and Equity 12:41 - What is a "Foundational Computer Science Class" and why is it a baseline? - MI CS Standards 17:02 - TCAPS Computer Science Weeks - bit.ly/TCAPSCodes 20:57 - Computer Science and Digital Citizenship 22:51 - Tech Tool of the Week: https://www.csedweek.org/ Additional Resources to share: CS Equity Guide (written for California, but useful for us as well) CS Summit - 11/3/23 Copy of CS for MI 2023 Slide Deck - CS Leadership Summit IET Grant - Michigan - Copy of 2023-2024 Implementing Effective Use of Technology Grant Overview 99b Grant - Michigan - 99b Grant Criteria Overview Please rate and review the podcast on your app of choice and leave us a comment on LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram Thank you so much for listening and inspiring!
