*Opportunity to Inform the CS202x effort* Excited—or anxious—about how computing affects society?
Help determine the future of CS education!! Please fill out & distribute the "Society, Ethics & Professionalism Feedback" for CS 202X! The goal CS 202x ACM/IEEE-CS/AAAI Computer Science Curriculum task force is to develop the CS part of the broad computer studies curriculum that, if history is the guide, will be used in one form or another by colleges and universities worldwide. As the chair of SIGCAS, ACM's Special Interest Group on Computers and Society, I am particularly interested in how CS students are to be informed and engaged in relation to society as time goes on. The task force is seeking feedback and ideas about the "Society, Ethics & Professionalism" area which is the most pertinent in this regard. I and the subcommittee working in this area would greatly appreciate your input. Thanks in advance!
