Well, my current concern is for my cousin, who is in a CSCI program by an ex-Math prof...

The problem is that they're teaching her syntax, but not really about how to solve the problems...

I don't remember being taught either... but it's certainly something I learned... She's incredibly frustrated because she sees her classmates breezing through class, because they've been programming for years and have learned the general problem-solving skills to get through class... she is having to learn both at the same time.

But, since there's so much focus on bootcamps lately, and it's a problem they ALSO have, I was hoping there was a solution there.

(my point being... colleges aren't doing a better job at this inherently... it's likely just that students have 4 years to figure it out or drop out, before joining the workplace)
