    Ben-David Kolikant, Y. (2011). Computer-Science Education as a Cultural Encounter: A
    Socio-cultural Framework for Articulating Teaching Difficulties, Instructional Sciences, 39,
    4, 543-559.
    Kolikants article talks about cultural factors that are related to teaching and learning
    difficulties faced by people in the field of computer science. Dr. Ben-David Kolikant Yifat is
    a Computer Science professor in The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel and has
    interests in cognitive and social aspects in learning and teaching and their mutual
    relationship. She has published many articles related to the cultural encounter between two
    learning communities; teachers, who were raised on books and students who know
    computers from the day they were born. This article is about a study conducted by the author
    on 40 computer science teachers in order to learn about their perception regarding students
    learning. In depth interviews are conducted with teachers to learn about learning and
    teaching difficulties that are rooted in students contextualization of an educational situation
    within a culture. The author addresses to the education administrators and computer science
    teachers and argues for viewing schooling as a cultural encounter between students and
    teachers. The survey conducted helped in documenting, understanding and articulating the
    studentteacher encounter and examining the explanatory power and constraints of this
    metaphor and its relations with other explanations. This information may help in making
    computer science education better to understand for students.

    Mahni, V.(2008). Teaching Information System Technology in Partnership with IT


    Companies, Organizacija, 41, 2.
    Dr. Viljan Mahni is an Associate Professor and Head of the Software Engineering
    Laboratory at the Faculty of Computer and Information Science of the University of
    Ljubljana. His research interests include software technology and the development of
    information systems with a special emphasis on university information systems. Mahni
    writes about how university computer science courses can be improved by partnering with
    IT companies and giving students real industry exposure. Author discusses about the
    experiment done by him on a courses structure to partner it with big IT companies like
    Microsoft and IBM. This practice encouraged practical skills that would allow them a
    smooth transition from study to a working environment. Students gained some grounding in
    business skills with an increasing emphasis on social skills such as customer relations and
    team working. Although the students have to work harder in order to match their schedules
    to these big IT firms, these courses provide students additional knowledge that cannot be
    obtained through classical lectures at the university. Students are faced with almost real
    problems, which must be solved and presented to potential customers. At the end author
    conducts surveys to analyze the findings by comparing them to usual courses of the
    university. It is found that students with industry exposure do much better that usual students
    and thus the author urges for a new change in the education system, so that more courses can
    be partnered with the companies related to the subject.
