I had an interesting discussion with my wife (a biomedical / robotics engineer) about the first sentence under the photo "Is robotics science? A lot of people would apparently say no." Interestingly "robotics" doesn't appear anywhere else in the article. But as a computer scientist I couldn't say definitively that the answer to that is "yes"... even my wife says "it depends"... so the stipulation the article starts out with that not knowing the answer to that question means the parents are scientifically illiterate is a false one. Just like movies and TV shows now often call characters "scientists" that are clearly doing engineering not science. I realize there is a huge overlap and it is possible to be both a scientist and an engineer. But I can't help but to feel this survey and the author don't realize there is a difference between the two.
