Creativity and Code Thinking

Catalog description

Conventional programming courses teach coding with an eye towards industry standards, corporate agendas, and professional application. Courses like these necessarily emphasize efficiency and routine, while minimizing idiosyncrasy and expression. This course argues for programming as a tool for creative expression and thoughtful inquiry; as a means for cultivating capacities for critique, imagination, empathy, and justice. PA-1A, SI-03, SI-04.
