Abstract

Aspects of computing are used in nearly all professions. Regardless of discipline, graduates require ever-improving computing competencies-applied in their own disciplinary contexts-to be proficient experts and informed citizens. However, teaching and learning contextually relevant computing competencies to non-computing students is fraught with challenges. One of those is the effective use of computing terminology. Terminology is fundamental to most human activities and is particularly critical where disciplines meet. We seek to investigate the nature of, and barriers presented by, computing terminology used in non-computing disciplines.
