Studying Computer Science at Home?

Posted by Cliff on from the bringing-the-education-to-you dept.

Jack asks: "My fianceé would like to study computer science at home, with a view to becoming a software engineer. She is disabled, so it is hard for her to attend a course at an actual college or university. She completed high school, getting good qualifications in maths, but has no formal training in computer science, as yet. Can anyone recommend good home study courses for her? (We are in the UK)."

    ...or she could get her 2nd degree in astrophysics and run off with the first two-headed alien that hits on her at a party.

    It's either that or back to the dole queue on Monday... /Trillian?

  2. Falsifying research data? by shaitand · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    0.3% falsifying research data, can someone explain to me how anything on that list can be considered something other than falsifying research data? Shouldn't this be the total of the other options rather than a seperate choice?

    I find it rather interesting that only that the 15+% that said they changed research under pressure from a funding source do not consider that to be falsification.
