From the course: Getting Started with Technology: Think Like an Engineer

Thinking like an engineer

- [Kathryn] Technology can be daunting. Usually some sci-fi show or a lone nerdy genius programmer comes to mind when you think computer science, but the process is much more creative and approachable than it seems. Hi, my name is Kathryn Hodge, and I'm a software engineer that's super passionate about technology. In this course, I'll show you how engineers approach problems and the type of thinking that goes into solving them. We'll also go into what it's like to create a website or an app and even go into a bit of analytics. I started learning just like this, by watching videos and digging through the code myself, and who knows? After this, you might also become a computer scientist yourself. I'm so excited to share this with you, so let's get started.
