"The Cost of Change" (or, a plea to software engineering researchers) https://neverworkintheory.org/2023/05/18/the-cost-of-change.html

If you are at #ICSE2023 this week, I'd be grateful for feedback on this plan or suggestions for a better on.

The Cost of Change ยท It Will Never Work in Theory

@gvwilson I'm not at ICSE but I teach a first year data science course that is basically "design an experiment, collect data, analyze it, and figure out what (if anything) they've proven". Funnily I think most students I meet (and also myself) could have used some more software engineering ๐Ÿ˜ but if useful I'm happy to share materials, discuss etc
@gvwilson my colleague @AndrzejWasowski is there though, and he probably also has a better idea of how contributing time/money works in practice in Denmark ๐Ÿ˜
@gvwilson @AndrzejWasowski anyway, if this is useful I'm happy to share the course material, I designed this 6 years ago and taught to different audiences since (a lot inspired by meeting you @gvwilson somewhere in the early stages)
@DrVeronikaCH Thanks - I think what would (need to) distinguish this course is having all examples/data sets/questions etc. drawn from software engineering. I look at "data science for biologists" courses, for example, and all of the motivating examples (and homework) are domain-relevant.
@gvwilson makes sense. Maybe I'll chat to @AndrzejWasowski about this sometime
