I stand with Turing Award winner Alan Kay - "The real sciences - chemistry, physics, geography - don't have "science" in their names. Hobbies aspiring to be sciences do." and MIT MacVicar Fellow Hal Abelson "Computer Science is not really very much about computers. And it’s not about computers in the same sense that physics isn’t really about particle accelerators, and biology is not really about microscopes and petri dishes. It is about formalizing intuitions about process: how to do things." Far too many students approach Computer Science as if it is a "science" about computers that can be successfully learned by wrote memorization and chatGPT regurgitation. It's not - it's about understanding the art of formalizing an abstract problem and converting it into a form that is computable.
