Medienproduktion und -manpipulation als Einführung in die Informatik, was die Frauenquote erhöht und die Dropout-Rate senkt.
As the skills that constitute literacy evolve to
accommodate digital media, computer science
education finds itself in a sorry state. While students
are more in need of computational skills than ever,
computer science suffers dramatically low retention
rates and a declining percentage of women and
minorities. Studies of the problem point to the overemphasis
in computer science classes on abstraction
over application, technical details instead of
usability, and the stereotypical view of programmers
as loners lacking creativity. In spring 2003, Georgia
Institute of Technology trialed a new course,
Introduction to Media Computation, which teaches
programming and computation in the context of
media creation and manipulation. Students
implement PhotoShop-style filters and digital video
special effects, splice sounds, and search Web pages.
The course is open only to non-computer science and
non-engineering majors at Georgia Tech, such as
liberal arts, management and architecture students.
The course is supported through the use of a Webbased
collaboration environment where students
actively share and discuss their digital creations. The
results have been dramatic. 120 students enrolled,
2/3 female, and only three students withdrew. By the
end of the semester, the combined withdrawal, failure
and D-grade rate had reached 11.5%--compared to
42.9% in the traditional introductory computer
science course. 60% of the students who took media
computation reported that they would be interested in
taking an advanced version of the course; only 6%
reported that they would otherwise be interested in
taking more computer science. Results of the trial
indicate that media computation motivates and
engages an audience that is poorly served by
traditional computer science courses.

If the only people who are able to take full advantage of computers’ expressive capacity are programmers, then many people will lose valuable educational opportunities. im Text Computers for Communication, Not Calculation (2004)
