  • Course Instructor
    • Winter 2022: CSC300 (Computer and Society), Department of Computer Science, University of Toronto.
      This course offers a concise introduction to ethics in computing, distilled from the ethical and social discussions carried on by today's academic and popular commentators. This course covers a wide range of topics within this area including the philosophical framework for analyzing computer ethics; the impact of computer technology on security, privacy and intellectual property, digital divide, and gender and racial discrimination; the ethical tensions with Artificial Intelligence around future of work and humanity, the emerging role of online social media over voice, inclusion, and democracy; and the environmental consequences of computing.
    • Fall 2022: INF1339H (Introduction to Computational Thinking), School of Information, University of Toronto.
      This course examines the basic ideas of computational thinking. In particular focuses on principled thought processes, approaches and principles that guide computational analyses, from problem formulation all the way to effective and efficient problem solving. It contains an introduction to algorithm building and their complexity, basic data structures used in computational solutions as well as the use of necessary tools to tackle large-scale problems in a variety of domains. The course also discusses the application of computational thinking in different areas such as the humanities, social sciences and the arts, potentially looking into the impact it may have on them. Finally, it serves as a necessary preamble for students who will follow a more technical career, especially in the area of Information Systems and Applied Data Science.
