Global Impact

Computing has a global impact. Computation has changed the way people think, work, live, and play. Our methods for communicating, collaborating, problem-solving, and doing business have changed and are changing due to innovations enabled by computing. Many innovations in other fields are fostered by advances in computing.  Computational approaches lead to new understandings, new discoveries, and new disciplines. Students in this course become familiar with many ways in which computing enables innovation, and they analyze the potential benefits and harmful effects of computing in a number of contexts.

    Essential Questions:
1. How does computing enhance human communication, interaction, and cognition?
2. How does computing enable innovation?
3. What are some potential beneficial and harmful effects of computing?
4. How do economic, social, and cultural context influence innovation and the use of computing?
