Probably an old story to some: Decided to take a look at the site of Neumont U, the big industry funded 2.5 year CS curriculum that Chick had visited and referenced.
http://www.neumont.edu/ Which brought me to a reference to Eve Andersson, the chair of the BSCS Program http://www.neumont.edu/public/faculty/eve_andersson.htm Which mentions her as a co-founder of ArsDigita Corporation. Which brings me to this autobiographical article about the start-up and bust-up of ArsDigita by another of the co-founders, Philip Greenspun http://www.waxy.org/random/arsdigita/ which mentions ArsDigita's sponsorship of ArsDigita University "a tuition-free post-baccalaureate one-year computer science program" which brings me to the alumni site of the now defunct program, which makes the teaching materials developed by the faculty for the program available in various forms of media. http://www.aduni.org/ An interesting story, with a sad ending, IMO : Andersson at Neumont Art _______________________________________________ Edu-sig mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/edu-sig
