When you look through America'a history of scholars, and some of the best in our school (especially the greatest problem solvers), I noticed that many of them understand computer programming, and writing code. Mark Zuckerburg, who I believe has one of the most naturally gifted brains in our society today as well as Bill Gates from past generations, and Paul Allen, (the list goes on and on). Programmers are forced to learn relationships in unique ways due to the debugging process involved in programming. Debugging is basically making changes to a code to get the code to accomplish a task. I do not believe that these people were programmers and software architects because they were smart. I think they are smart because theyre programmers. Take Christopher Poole for an example. He does not analyze concepts like most people do, but it works for him! In fact, in engineering seminar, he is usually the first to understand the concepts, and that is because he seeks to understand how each equation or formula fits into the universe because his brain has learn to scope with a wide, yet critical scope he learned through programming. I think most people having difficulty in tough, concept based classes like Chemistry, Physics, Engineering classes, ect because they fail to understand some critical pieces that tie the concept with the formulas. I along with others seeking to sharpen their problem solving skills should consider working with computer programs. I feel as though the more you can process, the easier it will be for you to process and learn concepts quickly.
