I miss original Songza. Google, could you just let me have original Songza back? You killed it with your merge to Google Music, and now its only remnants are titles to some of the playlists you try to hide and never recommend. Example: htt

I make about $0.05-$1.25 a day from my YouTube channel. All my old lectures from various CS courses are hosted there. I'm not sure if the algorithm's changed or if some of the videos have gotten traction for Berkeley's CS50,

I think one of the reasons is that "we don't train people on how to make UIs". If you look at when UI is introduced in CS programs, its as a visual example for Object Oriented Programming. However, its introduced and immediat

It does hold out! Here is a link to my research on retyping code [1]. To summarize my findings, students that regularly completed typing exercises earned higher course grades and submitted less erroneous code. [1] https://dl.acm.

Yup! To learn music, cooking, martial arts, etc., you start by following someone else to build the muscle memory on doing the skill. As a follow-up, my own research [1] on retyping code showed students earned higher grades and submitted les

Sure! My research bio is at [1]. And I definitely agree there's a disconnect between how younger individuals learn CS and college-level CS. Often those younger individuals could be seen as "automatic A's" because they&#x

I wouldn't say so; I've taught for a community college, teaching college, and R1 and while there are differences, it seems to be a consistent issue across the board. While there are clearly individuals more interested in graduate

I don't think its so much the introduction of the notation, but rather the lack of practice in ensuring the learning of the notation. The analogies I've used in the past come from music and martial arts. In music, when you are fir

The issue is that no one in CS seems to care that "Notation in any field is a barrier to entry". Almost all CS Ed research presently focuses on the problem-solving skill of CS rather than the technical literacy. There is almost no

True; I think the rational stems from the following research questions: R1 - Is the entity a projection of the participant or manifestation of a separate entity? R2 - If the entity is a manifestation, can it process information that is not

I was more thinking about how music is a common element for trips. Maybe math problems aren't appropriate because, as you say, it requires an entirely different structure. Music though is very sensory and perceptual so could you elicit
