That simply isn't true. Intelligence tests - e.g. the older SAT - are strongly correlated with wealth. That's why, in order to make things "fair" (both on the basis of income and "too many Asians"), the college board has tried to make it more education/prep based and less g-loaded.
As for your willingness to teach as a part time gig for fun, that's a model that many code schools are happy with (and probably favor). CC tends to have mostly academic faculty. If you want to teach computer science at CC, nothing is stopping g you from applying.
Fundamentally, if CCs have not already done this, and code schools are filling the gap, it's because CCs squandered their 20 year lead.
- koolba 10y ago> That simply isn't true. Intelligence tests - e.g. the older SAT - are strongly correlated with wealth. That's education, not intelligence. The former is a function of the latter and your surrounding resources. I don't care how intelligent you are, your not going to know the meaning of some seldom used SAT vocab word unless you've studied the language and that study takes education (both classroom and self directed).
- yummyfajitas 10y agoThe same pattern exists for sat math, ravens matrices, etc. In order to reduce this effect the college board switched from 50/50 math/verbal to 33/66.
