I found this fascinating quote today:

Been listening and reading to Jon Udell talk about Computational Thinking. Still need to wrap my head around the whole concept, but wanted to introduce the topic and hope that others would also find this topic interesting.Computational Thinking, May 2009

You should read the whole article.

Please check out the power point presentation with the above title by clicking the link under meeting notes to the right.

Find the answers to these questions:

1) What characteristics are common to engineering and computer science students?
2) Who is hiring engineers and computer scientists?
3) What fuels the current and future needs?
4) Which jobs are in most demand?
5) What are the starting salaries?
6) What does Sacramento State Unversity have to offer?

Hello CPATH friends,

Please see the link under meeting notes entitled "Why Choose Engineering or Computer Science?" to see a power point presentation from Sac State with the answer to that question!

Hello CPATH Friends!

The steering committee met last Thursday, February 26, to determine the level of interest/passion for pursuing the next level of CPATH involvement. The vote was nearly unanimous and one quote sums it up, "I can't imagine NOT going forward!" The next step is to apply for the implementation grant, for which the deadline is coming quickly in April.

Please see the document called "CPATH II Concept Development" linked at the right to read some questions to stimulate ideas and post your feedback as a response to this post.

Thank you,

The CPATH Steering Committee
