Computer science

ACM SIGCSE Bulletin, 2007
The field of computer science has been rapidly developing since its recognition as a stand-alone discipline. The dynamics of the field led to its inadequate public image and posed challenges regarding how to make computer science studies more appealing to students.

Examining Language Bias in Computer Science

Proceedings of the 51st ACM Technical Symposium on Computer Science Education, 2020
This lightning talk will discuss the current efforts to identify and analyze the possibility of language bias in documents, exams, technical interviews, and actual interviews used in computer science as contributing factors in the continued lack of participation/success of underrepresented populations in computers science despite extensive efforts to ...

Programming languages as part of core computer science

ACM SIGPLAN Notices, 2008
While the programming languages course played a key role in Curricula '68, '78, and '91, Curriculum 2001 replaced most of the content in programming languages with sections on learning to program. We argue that the need for a programming languages course has not diminished, but instead increased, especially as we move into an era of many-core computing.

The teaching of assembly language to computer science and computer engineering majors

ACM SIGCSE Bulletin, 1984
Progress in the fields of computer science and computer engineering has put considerable strain on academic departments to keep the curricula abreast of the "state of the art." This is a constant demand to modernize courses and programs. This usually takes the form of continually adding new courses, and including new material in existing courses.Our ...

Computer Science Technologies Approaching Language

FILOLOGIA MODERNĂ: REALIZĂRI ŞI PERSPECTIVE ÎN CONTEXT EUROPEAN, 2023
In this paper, I try to review the field of language technologies, bringing also into discussion the resources that feed the research in this field, with a special focus on the Romanian language. I have avoided going into technical or computer-related details, preferring an intuitive presentation that would focus a reader with a background in ...

Computer science as a foreign language substitute

Proceedings of the third SIGCSE technical symposium on Computer science education - SIGCSE '73, 1973
The world of today has a diversified opinion concerning the worth and value of the computer. For some it is a monster to be feared, while for others it is a friend to be respected. Two statements will probably best demonstrate these different points of view.

Why computer science students need language

ACM SIGCSE Bulletin, 2003
Many students enter the field of computer science with misconceptions about the importance of communication skills. They often choose this field, thinking they will end up with jobs working alone or with other "techies" developing computer games, and not having to deal with people.

The use of functional languages in teaching computer science

Journal of Functional Programming, 1993
Abstract This survey presents information concerning the use of functional languages (both strict and non-strict) for teaching in higher education. It lists the languages used by over 70 different institutions, the years in which the courses are given, and the recommended textbooks.
