Since when has Canada ever been a "3rd world country"? The OP is talking about schools in poor emerging economy nations, not schools in industrialized economies.
- a3w 4y agohttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third-Worldism#/media/File:Cold_War_alliances_mid-1975.svg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third-Worldism#/media/File:Col... Canada is first world. Switzerland is third world (an also, on of the richest countries). Is it imperialistic to call developing countries 3rd world-countries? Then again, developing just means "more climate friendly then richer countries" I guess.
- MattyMc 4y agoCanada is a regarded as a first world country. No, OP is not talking about schools in "poor emerging economies." OP is talking about their experience doing a CS degree in Kenya. The COMMENTER (telomero22) is generalizing this to be a common experience in "3rd world countries." I'm disagreeing with the commenter, telomero22, who believes OP's experience is due to studying CS in a "3rd world country." As others have confirmed in this thread, I'm suggesting that these sentiments are extremely common with CS grade in 1st world countries such as Canada.
