Fun vs. hard work in education
Here’s a great article on how computer science education is being damaged by catering to students who value fun over hard work. Note the publication where this appeared: the STSS is a US Air Force organization. Why would the USAF care? Because poor CS education will have an effect on US national security, since we won’t have the manpower to design new weapons systems. Of course, poor CS education will have a negative effect on the whole US economy.
