How do you balance opportunity and passion?

The catch up episode after a year-long hiatus.  Overall, a very catch-all episode.

Rounding out the first season. We get evaluate ourselves. How can we evaluate classes and teachers?

We get trapped in follow up and talking about how students should advance their studies. How visible should the path, and resources, be?

We discuss Languages, the Holy Grail of CS education. Peter lets loose a grudge.

We discuss CS For All. How should we introduce people to this world. Andrew insists that syntax isn't the problem, and tries to fend off Peter and Jonathan's metaphors.

Continuing from assements we discuss Take Home Tests and Group Work in Computer Science. When and how should we collaborate? Andrew talks about having trouble finding an effective group, Jonathan says to just push forward, and Peter wants it to be something more.

In the wake of midterms week, we discuss Assessment in Computer Science. What is the best way to assess someone's learning? Peter soul searches, Andrew and Jonathan try to tell him that some students just won't come to class.

We discuss Electives in Computer Science. What classes should be offered? Are there electives that should actually be included in the core set of classes. Jonathan tell people that he makes his own way and they should too.

We discuss Classes in Computer Science. What classes should be included? We try to solve education and mostly complain about the current structure. Jonathan and Peter reconcile some of their differences.
