From the University of Toronto in 1993. John Grinder, a linguistics professor at the University of Santa Cruz, and Richard Bandler, a mathematician, computer programmer and psychology student, received a grant to examine the attributes of excellence. Jerry Weinberg was the first researcher to look at this stuff in his classic PSYCHOLOGY OF COMPUTER PROGRAMMING. He had written The Psychology of Computer Programming in 1970, a number of papers about testing during the sixties, including a section on testing in his 1961 book, Fundamentals of Computer Programming. A computer programming gig for a psychology professor got him interested in neural network modeling and mathematical psychology, in which he earned his Ph.D. From this, arose the idea of teaching Concepts of programming languages first. Programming is a human activity. Computational thinking influences fields such as biology, chemistry, linguistics, psychology, economics and statistics. Computer Science is a discipline. Humans are strange creatures who behave in odd ways sometimes. Programming is kind of a job that leaves huge impressions because it is complex mixture of logic and maths. In every job there are psychological impacts. The Psychology of Computer Programming: Silver Anniversary Edition by Gerald M. As pedagogy, I would consider it the re-application of Constructivist principles to the learning of Programming Languages and teaching of Computer Science in the age of the Internet. Then there's the Psychology of Computer Programming - but that's from the 20th anniversary printing. Anyway, my challenge – to myself – will be to read and post a review of the books in there.
