Google Brings Computing Courses to 10 Colleges - Mark Lieberman, Inside Higher Ed

Google announced its latest higher education foray Wednesday: technology courses developed in-house and delivered to students at 10 four-year institutions. Students at eight institutions can enroll this semester in two introductory courses on computer science and data science. The company developed the curriculum and provides the content and materials; institutions supply faculty members to lead in-class projects. Google is also accepting applications for additional institutions that want to offer the introductory computer science and data science courses. Priority consideration will go to institutions with no existing computer science program or one that's at capacity. https://www.insidehighered.com/quicktakes/2018/10/18/google-brings-computing-courses-10-colleges
