+ Computer Science An introduction to the art

+ Computer Science n It is an art form n Allows infinite numbers of combinations of words, images and ideas. n Used to entertain and inform the masses. n Goes beyond the infamous binary code Can you think of a problem a computer scientist could solve?

+ Computer Scientists n Computer scientists look at individual pieces not just the big picture. n Computer simulation and automated performance was born because of the individual pieces n Computer scientists are not just programmers

+Q: What other jobs could benefit from the help of computer science? Q: Are there any jobs that you can think of where understanding computers would not be useful? Do you think there will be more or fewer of those in 5 years?

+ Computer Science Your responsibility in a techy world

+ What’s your responsibility? Find your balance. Here’s three ways to find balance between technology and human-power: • Technology vs. Physical Movement • Technology vs. Environment • Technology vs. Philanthropy

+ Technology vs. Physical Activity n Enjoy technology but live a little. Go play outside whenever you can. n When using technology, Take stretch breaks every half an hour n Follow the 20/20/20 rule: n http: //i. telegraph. co. uk/multimedia/archive/01249/computers_s chool_1249813 c. jpg “Every 20 minutes look at least 20 feet away for at least 20 seconds. ” http: //www. medicorium. com/images/Haber%20 Resim/kidplayground-425 ds 072809. jpg

+ Technology vs. Environment n Be careful with electricity n Turn the lights off when leaving a room n Shut down and unplug your computer when you’re done using it n Recycle unwanted paper Q: What other electricity do you use that you could try to save? Q: Is there anything else you could recycle to help offset paper use?

+ Technology vs. Philanthropy n Get into the habit of “paying it forward” n Help someone else having trouble with computers n Explain what you learn to others. Help them so you can help yourself. Q: How would you help the world if you were a computer scientist? Q: Who is the first person that you are going to teach this to once you learn it? https: //philanthropy. com/img/photos/biz/photo_41217_carouse l. jpg
