There was a strong push from upper division courses and industry to developbetter computational skills [14]. In most institutions, education in computer programming isrelegated to a single course in the curriculum. In some, that course has become a casualty ofreducing the number of credits required to earn a degree.There were two primary motivations for incorporating computing projects in the courses. First,to do so is a step toward computing across the curriculum. To develop computationalcompetency in students, they must view computing

[5] is distinct from a common – but harmful– public understanding of technologies as disembodied machines, mere tools or neutralinstruments. As Erik Schatzberg [6] and David Nye [7] have shown, this popular conception oftechnology is relatively new, having accompanied the modern era of industrial production. Whatmost people have considered technology over the last century had been understood as craftworkand mechanical arts for centuries previous. This distinction is not merely semantic. Craftworkand arts were processes, ways of doing things, and activities. They were dynamic and labor-based, rather than static and product-oriented. The twentieth-century movement toward thinkingof technology as objective and asocial propagated the inaccurate
