If you grew up watching Connections, or other great Science programming then you might be interested in my free web series which focuses on a historical, contextual approach to defining CS fields of studies by framing them as interesting "problems". For example my first episode is on cryptography and it follows the problem of "keeping secrets". It is geared towards people starting out their academic paths, or just curious minds. My program is called "Art of the Problem" www.artoftheproblem.net (the entire script is available for free on this site) currently I launched this project on kickstarter to help fund the creation of the pilot. I put a video on kickstarter which explains my concept here: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/artoftheproblem/gambling-with-secrets Thanks! (also looking for people to get involved or help edit my scripts) BRit |
