Self-taught Computer Science. I've worked with various developers from different backgrounds in the market. People debate whether a computer science degree is needed or if being self-taught is enough. I listen to both sides, but accepting that a formal education is disposable is hard. You can learn new skills without attending a university. I argue that you need to spend time in a place where people work together to learn. At this point, attending university is more vital. We often think that knowing technical things makes us succeed in our jobs. We must value the relationships we build during our time at university. The soft skills we develop during this time differ from what online courses can teach us. I must have learned much more after my graduation, no doubt. I can't deny that I learned the foundations in university that made this possible. This discussion should keep going in the future because of new technologies, like generative AI. Let's see what the next generation of professionals will look like. The most important thing is how those people can face computer science challenges.

"Left entirely to themselves, computer scientists can forget that computers are supposed to be tools that help people." —Ian Bogost If you're concerned that AI has become the tail wagging the dog in higher ed, check out "Universities Have a Computer Science Problem." While it doesn't mention AI, it's a great read for faculty and administrators grappling with big questions like: - How can we promote tech literacy across the curriculum instead of isolating it to one dedicated (and over-resourced) college or department? - How do we get students and society at large to recognize the value of disciplines whose hashtags aren't trending? - How can we ensure students graduate with the skills they need to find jobs today *and* the ability to anticipate change, pivot, and adapt—all without selling their souls? Full disclosure: I may be biased in my love for this article. I've always been a fan of Ian Bogost's work, but I didn't realize we both walked away from computer science majors to study French. This might be my favorite line in the article: "Reasoning that I could easily get a job as a computer professional no matter what it said on my degree, I decided to study other things while I had the chance." https://lnkd.in/eT_fRAJ9

Could #computerscience become the new #arthistory degree....? Possibly. If the job market is flooded with programmers, then it puts more pressure on programs that teach theory since it becomes more obvious that theory has little to do with day to day coding. That could then make Computer Science essentially an Art History degree, very important, but not for your job, i.e. you learn a ton, and it is very expensive, but has NOTHING TO DO WITH GETTING A JOB. ✨Pragmatic AI Labs builds courses on edX

#ComputerScience is not only a growing and well-paying #workforce sector, but a fundamental literacy. 💻 In a new Q&A, AIR's Joseph P. Wilson, Ph.D. explains why all students need access to computer science education. Fostering equity in computer science ensures that more individuals are prepared to participate in their communities and helps reduce bias in technology like #AI that analyzes data. See how CS@AIR: The Center for Evolving Computer Science Education supports and evaluates projects like Girls Who Code that aim to close the gaps in computer science education for both students and teachers.

Earlier this month, the CSTA announced a $1.6M commitment to revamp their K-12 Standards to better align with new technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI). At Kira Learning, we fully support this game-changing initiative. AI in education goes beyond simply teaching AI coding within computer science classrooms. It's about empowering teachers and school districts to incorporate AI tools into their computer science (CS) curriculum, enabling them to increase their capacity and create a more equitable learning environment. Jamie Payton, professor and chair of the Computer and Information Sciences Department at Temple University, recently presented on this topic, summarized well by Technical.ly in this recent article.

Computer Science Curricula 2023: Shaping the Future of CS Education The "Computer Science Curricula 2023" (CS2023) is a new comprehensive guide developed and released by the ACM, IEEE Computer Society, and AAAI (Association for Advancement of Artificial Intelligence) to outline the essential knowledge and competencies for undergraduate computer science degrees. This collaborative effort aims to standardize computer science education globally, ensuring graduates possess the necessary skills for successful careers in industry, research, or academia. Key highlights of CS2023 include: Evolving Discipline: The Body of Knowledge comprises seventeen updated knowledge areas. Core and Specialized Topics: A distinction between mandatory CS Core topics and recommended KA Core topics for in-depth study. Program Flexibility: Institutions can focus on specific knowledge areas to define their program's competencies. Ethical and Societal Concerns: The Society, Ethics, and the Profession (SEP) knowledge area is integrated across the curriculum. Enhanced Role of Mathematics: More hours are allocated to mathematics with flexible coverage. Professional Dispositions: Emphasis on appropriate professional attitudes for each knowledge area. Competency Model: A Competency Framework allows for tailored curriculum models to meet local needs. Impact of Generative AI: A new chapter discusses the potential of Generative AI in advancing computer science education. Developed by a global Steering Committee and based on extensive surveys from academia and industry, CS2023 is a vital resource for curriculum developers, educators, and approvers. The guidelines, which can be downloaded for free, aim to facilitate global collaboration and standardize educational outcomes in computer science.
