An option that you cannot afford to neglect Many colleges these days offer computing as one of the premium courses that you could add to course list. However there are some people who neglect it as and option because it might not be as glamorous as some of the science or arts courses. The fact that computing is only beginning to take route in many schools means that it has not yet developed a significant profile that would be able to overcome these prejudices.
In this article we will be examining some of the issues that might arise if you chose computing as subject at secondary school or primary school level. We will also be examining the impact of such a decision on the career paths of young students.
Computing as a subject falls within the sciences but it might not require the laboratory practical facilities that you would need for a subject such as chemistry. However it has its own requirements such as computer or laptop and internet access. The headmaster of the school will also need to make a decision whether they invite a full time computer teacher or train existing teachers to take on the role. It is important however that headmasters ensure that computers or laptops in schools are well protected from viruses and spyware. With an ever increasing presence of online threats, schools need to safeguard against these risks to minimize damage and downtime.
Given the fact that computer literacy has become as commonplace as making tea, it makes sense that you will want to use people who already operate with a computer. This saves costs and ensures that you are building the computer skills of all teachers.
