Celebrating the Release of Computing Careers and Disciplines
Talk given at CANNEXUS 2020 on the release of our Computing Careers and Disciplines booklet, which has gone on to be downloaded over 200000 times since its release.
Public Computing Intellectuals in the Age of AI Crisis
This talk advocates for a conceptual archetype (the Public Computer Intellectual) as a way of practically imagining the expanded possibilities of academic practice in the computing disciplines, one that provides both self-critique and an outward-facing orientation towards the public good.
Why Computing Belongs Within the Social Sciences
Short presentation based on my 2020 paper that appeared in the Communications of the ACM
Careers in Computing (2019 Edition)
Talk given in September at our new student orientation. Audience are new students going in to our two computing programs.
Facing Backwards While Stumbling Forwards: The Future of Teaching Web Develop...
Talk given at SIGCSE'19. Web development continues to grow as an essential skill and knowledge area for employed computer science graduates. Yet within the ACM CS2013 curriculum recommendation and within computing education research in general, web development has been shrinking or even disappearing all together. This paper uses an informal systematic literature review methodology to answer three research questions: what approaches are being advocated in existing web development education research, what are current trends in industry practice, and how should web development be taught in light of these current trends. Results showed a significant mismatch between the type of web development typically taught in higher education settings in comparison to web development in industry practice. Consequences for the pedagogy of web development courses, computer science curriculum in general, and for computing education research are also discussed.
Where is the Internet? (2019 Edition)
Mid-semester presentation for my Computers & Society course at Mount Royal University. Has some technical detail about how the internet works, web protocols, data centres, and typical security threats.
Modern Web Development (2018)
The document provides a summary of modern web development topics covered in 3 sentences or less:
Modern Web Development topics covered include the infrastructure of the internet, client-server communication models, the need for server-side programs, web architecture patterns, JavaScript's central role, front-end frameworks, cloud computing models, microservices architecture, and containers. Web development has become more complex with client-side logic, front-end frameworks, and the rise of cloud, microservices, and containers, which allow for more modular and scalable application development. Future trends discussed include progressive web apps, microservices architecture, and containers as a lightweight deployment mechanism for microservices.

Constructing a Web Development Textbook
This document discusses the process of constructing a textbook on web development. It covers planning the textbook's topics and structure, writing the content over 7 months while splitting chapters with a co-author, undergoing review processes, redrawing over 120 diagrams in a new style, and producing a second edition with additional content such as JavaScript and CSS3. Key challenges included navigating copyright issues, outsourcing production, and ensuring diversity in illustrations. The document provides insight into the lengthy efforts required to research, write, and produce a college textbook.
Web Development for Managers
Talk given at University of Applied Sciences at Krems , Austria for Master Forum 2017. Provides a rich overview of contemporary web development suitable for managers and business people.
Disrupting the Discourse of the "Digital Disruption of _____"
Talk given at University of Applied Sciences for Management and Communication in Vienna in January 2017. It critically interrogates the narrative of digital disruption. It will describe some of the contemporary psychological and social research about the digital lifeworld and make some broader observations about how to best think about technological change.
17 Ways to Fail Your Courses
Every year at our new student orientation, I used to give this talk to our first year students. Instead of telling them what they should do to achieve success, we thought it would be more effective and humourous to tell them instead how best to fail your courses. This was the last version of this talk from 2017.
Red Fish Blue Fish: Reexamining Student Understanding of the Computing Discip...
This 2016 presentation (for a paper) updates the findings of a multi-year study that is surveying major and non-major students’ understanding of the different computing disciplines. This study is a continuation of work first presented by Uzoka et al in 2013, which in turn was an expansion of work originally conducted by Courte and Bishop-Clark from 2009. In the current study, data was collected from 668 students from four universities from three different countries. Results show that students in general were able to correctly match computing tasks with specific disciplines, but were not as certain as the faculty about the degree of fit. Differences in accuracy between student groups were, however, discovered. Software engineering and computer science students had statistically significant lower accuracy scores than students from other computing disciplines. Consequences and recommendations for advising and career counselling are discussed.
Constructing and revising a web development textbook
A Pecha Kucha for WWW2016 in Montreal. Web development is widely considered to be a difficult topic to teach successfully within post-secondary computing programs. One reason for this difficulty is the large number of shifting technologies that need to be taught along with the conceptual complexity that needs to be mastered by both student and professor. Another challenge is helping students see the scope of web development, and their role in an era where the web is a part of everyday human affairs. This presentation describes our 2014 textbook and our plans for a second edition revision (which will be published in early 2017).
Computing is Not a Rock Band: Student Understanding of the Computing Disciplines
This presentation reports the initial findings of a multi-year study that is surveying major and non-major students’ understanding of the different computing disciplines. This study is based on work originally conducted by Courte and Bishop-Clark from 2009, but which uses a broadened study instrument that provided additional forms of analysis. Data was collected from 199 students from a single institution who were computer science, information systems/information technology and non-major students taking a variety of introductory computing courses. Results show that undergraduate computing students are more likely to rate tasks as being better fits to computer disciplines than are their non-major (NM) peers. Uncertainty among respondents did play a large role in the results and is discussed alongside implications for teaching and further research.
Citizenship: How do leaders in universities think about and experience citize...
This presentation explores the concept of citizenship based on the experience of student leaders from a mid-sized university in western Canada. Five student leaders participated in semi-structured individual interviews to explore their experience with, and understanding of, citizenship. Interviews concentrated on personal view points and definitions of citizenship, explored whether or not there are “good” and “great” citizens, and the role universities play in fostering strong citizenship amongst its student body. The measurement of citizenship and opportunities to foster citizenship were also explored. Qualitative content analysis revealed five themes, including political participation, social citizenship/solidarity, engagement, transformative action and autonomy. Citizenship, while highly valued by this population, also appears to be impossible to measure. If post-secondary institutions are aiming to create better citizens, more work needs to be done to create a common understanding of the intended outcome. Based on these findings, a new potential model of citizenship is proposed, in line with the work of Dalton and others who emphasize a shift towards personal involvement over traditional political engagement. Further, these results suggest that students could benefit from understanding themselves as political agents, capable of inculcating change within the university context and beyond.
Thinking About Technology
Presentation for a guest lecture for a colleague's Media History and Contemporary Issues course. She wanted me to cover technological determinism and social constructivism, as well as through in some content about my research on multitasking and online reading.
A longitudinal examination of SIGITE conference submission data
Presents our examination of submission data for the SIGITE conference between the years 2007-2012. SIGITE is an ACM computing conference on IT education. The presentation describes which external factors and which internal characteristics of the submissions are related to eventual reviewer ratings. Ramifications of the findings for future authors and conference organizers are also discussed. If you want to read the full paper, visit http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=2656450.2656465
Web Security
This document is a chapter from a textbook on web development security. It covers several key security principles for web development, including the CIA triad of confidentiality, integrity and availability. It discusses risk assessment and management, including identifying actors, impacts, threats and vulnerabilities. Authentication methods like passwords, multifactor authentication and third party authentication are explained. The importance of authorization to define user privileges is also covered. Overall security practices like secure design, testing, policies and business continuity planning are recommended.
Is Human Flourishing in the ICT World of the Future Likely?
The role that information and computing technology (ICT) plays in improving human flourishing is not always clear. This presentation examines current research on one aspect of ICT, namely electronic reading, to demonstrate that in this case the ICT in question may actually diminish flourishing. It begins with an overview of the idea of flourishing in positive psychology, and then presents research on electronic reading comprehension, multitasking and distraction, and online scanning behaviors. The paper then makes an argument about the close connection between reading and flourishing, and then concludes by hypothesizing that mindful‐based reading practices may mitigate some of the worst features of electronic reading.
Constructing a Contemporary Textbook
Textbooks are an essential part of the student experience, but may seem a daunting prospect to write. This presentation describes my experience with a recently-written textbook. It covers such issues as: writing a prospectus, the current textbook market, writing schedules, production issues, and marketing.
CSS: Introduction
This presentation is based on the third chapter of my textbook Fundamentals of Web Development. The book is published by Addison-Wesley. It can be purchased via http://www.amazon.com/Fundamentals-Web-Development-Randy-Connolly/dp/0133407152.
This book is intended to be used as a textbook on web development suitable for intermediate to upper-level computing students. It may also be of interest to a non-student reader wanting a single book that encompasses the entire breadth of contemporary web development.
This book will be the first in what will hopefully be a textbook series. Each book in the series will have the same topics and coverage but each will use a different web development environment. The first book in the series will use PHP.

Art and Culture - Module 11 - Enlightenment
Eleventh and final module for GNED 1201 (Aesthetic Experience and Ideas). This one ever so briefly covers the aesthetics of the Enlightenment. I only had a single lecture available to me so it only really covers the topic in a very cursory way.
This course is a required general education course for all first-year students at Mount Royal University in Calgary, Canada. My version of the course is structured as a kind of Art History and Culture course. Some of the content overlaps with my other Gen Ed course.
Art and Culture - Module 10 - Reformation and Counter-Reformation
Tenth module for GNED 1201 (Aesthetic Experience and Ideas). This one mainly covers the Reformation and Counter-Reformation of the 16th and early 17th Century. It also covers aesthetic responses to the Reformation, especially Caravaggio and Bernini.
