What most schools don't teach

My language/social studies/philosophy teacher friends with the best jobs, not just payment, are in that place because they studied engineering too.
Education theorists know that computer sciences' technology can have a great impact on academia and are desperately trying to implement them in every possible- beneficial way to academia, investigation and so on.
In little more than two years university has invited me and a friend to about 10 academic forums about implementing technology in classrooms, in curriculum making, in research, etc, etc. There seems to be a great one tomorrow and Friday, but it's just too damn pricey and time consuming (considering I have classes).
Education, as a science, already takes knowledge from other sciences to produce more knowledge; it will be interesting to see how we add computer sciences to that list and start producing knowledge and technology that will improve education (practical, like in classrooms) and life.

I completely agree with the part of the video that says where computer programming gets you to think.

It's true, in my opinion. Even if you have no intention of ever taking a programming job, learning some sort of programming opens up your mind to thinking, because of the inherit problem solving that's required in it. Even the simplest problems require some thinking when you first learn programming, and it really works your brain.

This, in the end, helps you on whatever job you take, because you're more open minded and have more experience thinking things out before acting.
