Jun 30, 2017 at 12:23 comment added user737 I think that 'selling' CS to the right people is eminently on-topic, and there is nothing wrong with starting on a particular case. Flagging to reopen.

Jun 25, 2017 at 12:09 comment added Sean Houlihane I think this could be on-topic if it's re-written to be less specific, and more about diversity. The 'elite' perception is a valid concern - and although we'd prefer our junior coders to all be high-fliers, that would leave noone to do the implementation work or testing

Jun 22, 2017 at 10:58 comment added checkersquares @thesecretmaster Yeah I can see what you mean. From the SE sites I know it felt like the most appropriate, but it's probably a bit "pre-education" and focuses more on a single person than a classroom (though I believe there's benefit in a more personalized education). If it gets flagged as off-topic I'll take it down.
Jun 22, 2017 at 10:11 comment added thesecretmaster Hi Checkersquares, welcome to CS Educators! I'd just like to warn you that this question might spark some discussion because it's not explicitly about teaching computer science, it's about getting someone interested in learning. I personally like this question because motivating students is certainly a part of teaching.
