Computer science education or computing education is the field of teaching and learning the discipline of computer science, [1][2][3][4][5][6] and computational thinking. [7][8][9] The field of computer science education encompasses a wide range of topics, from basic programming skills to advanced algorithm design and data analysis.
Comprehensive sex education (CSE) is an instructional approach aimed at providing individuals, particularly young people, with accurate, holistic information about sexuality, relationships, and reproductive health. Unlike abstinence-only education, CSE includes a broad curriculum that covers topics such as safe sex practices, contraception ...
Science, technology, society and environment (STSE) education, originates from the science technology and society (STS) movement in science education. This is an outlook on science education that emphasizes the teaching of scientific and technological developments in their cultural, economic, social and political contexts.
Master of Science (M.Sc.) The two years M.Sc. Programme is offered for students with bachelor’s degree in relevant discipline. The programme is currently offered in the Departments of Biological Science, Chemistry and Mathematics with an aim to integrate classroom learning with research and provides ample scope for multidisciplinary interactions.
Socially relevant computing. Socially relevant computing ( SRC) is a unique paradigm in computing introduced by the researchers at the University at Buffalo, Rice University and Microsoft Research. It focuses on the use of computation to solve problems that students are most passionate about. It presents computer science as a cutting-edge ...
Other projects like AgeGuess [8] focus on the senior demographics and enable the elderly to upload photos of themselves so the public can guess different ages. Lists of citizen science projects may change. For example, the Old Weather project website indicates that as of January 10, 2015, 51% of the logs were completed. [9]
Computational social science is an interdisciplinary academic sub-field concerned with computational approaches to the social sciences. This means that computers are used to model, simulate, and analyze social phenomena. It has been applied in areas such as computational economics, computational sociology, computational media analysis ...
Sociology. Social construction of technology (SCOT) is a theory within the field of science and technology studies. Advocates of SCOT—that is, social constructivists —argue that technology does not determine human action, but that rather, human action shapes technology. They also argue that the ways a technology is used cannot be understood ...
