Should Computer Science Be Required?
- jleyank 5y agoNo. Perhaps a course out of the sociology or psychology or political science departments on the effects of computers and electronic information on social and political life in $COUNTRY might be of use. But the use of computers is a middle-school subject, and how to make them (go) is for those interested in such. Some kind of basic understand of math, statistics and critical thought and how entertainment biases thought would be a win. Also Betteridge's Law of Headlines.
- WheelsAtLarge 5y agoWe need a computer literacy course that all students would take. It should be similar to the health course all high school students need to take where they get and understanding of how to take care of their body and how to lead a healthy life. In a computer literacy course students would get and understanding of computers and the best way to use them to improve their lives and not be a slave to the companies that put profits above people's mental health.
