Computer science education has a mastery problem.
Students pass courses. They complete assignments. But put them in front of a slightly unfamiliar problem and many stall out.
We tend to treat this as an individual failure. They’re not trying. They’re not curious. They’re “just not cut out for this.” But what if the problem isn’t the students?
What if it’s the design of the curriculum itself?
