Math education is horrible, idk why you would model anything off it. So many people seem to think they're not good at math, just because teachers and they way its taught isn't good.
I think comp sci and software engineering need to be separated some how, like physics and engineering. Also programming needs to be its own thing, separate from engineering. Like a life skill. I can use a hammer and some saws and make some simple things or do some repairs, but im not an engineer and definitely not a physicist. More people should be able to hack some thing together with python, without feeling like they need to be an engineer or a computer scientist.
- jahewson 5y ago1000% agree. I went into computer science because it was the only subject high school wasn’t able to ruin, as they didn’t teach it.
