I’ve used “Learn AI-Assisted Python Programming With GitHub Copilot and ChatGPT” by Porter and Zingaro in my 101 course, and then circled back on the programming fundamentals in 102.
Regarding the topic of the article, this is a very incisive piece that accurately frames a significant pedagogical shift many of us in computer science education are experiencing. While AI excels at syntax generation, the fundametnal understanding of algorithms and computational thinking remains indispensable for critical evaluation and effective problem definition.
