Jeannette M. Wing – Computational Thinking and Thinking About Computing

23 April, 12:33, by admin Tags: , , , , , , , , ,

Computational thinking will be a fundamental skill used by everyone in the world. To reading, writing, and arithmetic, lets add computational thinking to every childs analytical ability. Computational thinking is an approach to solving problems, building systems, and understanding human behavior that draws on the power and limits of computing. While computational thinking has already begun to influence many disciplines, from the sciences to the humanities, the best is yet to come.Looking to the future, we can anticipate even more profound impact of computational thinking on science, technology, and society: on the ways new discoveries will be made, innovation will occur, and cultures will evolve.

Dr. Jeannette Wing is the Assistant Director for Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) Directorate at the National Science Foundation. In this post, Wing guides and manages $527 million in funding for research in computer and information science and engineering. She received her S.B. and S.M. degrees in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science in 1979 and her Ph.D. degree in Computer Science in 1983, all from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. From 2004-2007, she was Head of the Computer Science Department at Carnegie Mellon. Wing is currently on leave from CMU where she is the Presidents Professor of Computer Science.

Professor Wing was or is on the editorial board of twelve journals. She has been a member of many advisory boards, including: the Networking and Information Technology (NITRD) Technical Advisory Group to the Presidents Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST), the National Academies of Sciencess Computer Science and, Telecommunications Board, ACM Council, the DARPA Information Science and Technology (ISAT) Board, NSFs CISE Advisory Committee, Microsofts Trustworthy Computing Academic Advisory Board, the Intel Research Pittsburghs Advisory Board, and the Sloan Research Fellowships Program Committee.

My Perspective On Black Men Dating Other Races Pt. 3

This is part 3 of the author’s perspective on the series Why Black Men Are Dating Other Races. This video was made to explain the author’s purpose in doing the series and clear up the general misconception of general issues raised in the previous 5 parts of the series.

Interracial dating is defined as marriage or sexual relations between individuals of different races.

According to the U.S. Census, in 2000 there were 1,432,908 Hispanic Origin-white marriages.[18] , 504,119 Asian-white marriages, 287,576 black-white marriages, 97,822 Hispanic Origin-black marriages, 40,317 Asian-Hispanic Origin[19] marriages, and 31,271 Asian-black marriages.

Today the vast majority of African-Americans possess varying degrees of European and Native American admixture; some estimates put average African-American possession of European admixture at 25% with figures as high as 50% in the Northeast and less than 10% in the south. A recent study by Mark D. Shriver of a European-American sample found that the average admixture in the white population is 0.7% African and 3.2% Native American. However, 70% of the sample had no African admixture. The other 30% had African admixture ranging from 2% to 20% with an average of 2.3%. By extrapolating these figures to the whole population some scholars suggest that up to 74 million European-Americans may have African admixture in the same range (2-20%)
