I spend a lot of time giving my students advice that is various forms of “don’t artificially narrow yourself” and “learn to embrace the unfamiliar with curiosity instead of fear.”

And do they get this? From the p-lang course, from the curriculum in general? I think they actually •do• to a large extent. And I think two big reasons for it are (1) it’s a conscious learning goal across many classes through the curriculum, not just a single unit or an afterthought, and (2) we try to address this as •social-emotional learning•, not just technical knowledge accretion.
