Sadly I cannot see either of these happening. There is already too much to pack in to an undergraduate CS (*) course even if first programming and simple algorithms moves out into pre-university education – as has now happened in the UK. Also far too few universities have good CS/Psych cooperation. There also needs to be much greater education everywhere about socio- technical systems. To be honest I'd prioritise this over programming language design since programmers can always use crap languages, but can they build the right system right?
