+
+I present a case study on using Emacs and Org-mode for literate
+programming in undergraduate computer and data science courses. Use of
+Emacs was obligatory in courses covering R, Python, C/C++, SQL, and more.
+Onboarding relied on simplified Emacs tutorials and starter configurations.
+Sessions involved live coding, and assignments and projects required
+Org-mode notebooks. I will present the setup, the results, and provide
+insight into my ongoing work with Emacs in the classroom. Especially in
+AI-assisted teaching, literate programming tools will become even more
+important, and Emacs and Org-mode will have a new role to play. Most
+importantly, using Emacs consistently for all classwork imparts deep
+infrastructure and computing knowledge that other tools often obfuscate.
+
+- Outline (tentative):
+ 1. Introduction to the speaker and the case study
+ 2. Teaching computer and data science today
+ 3. The rationale for using Emacs as an IDE
+ 4. The rationale for using Org-mode for literate programming
+ 5. Case study: purpose, content, technology, results
+ 6. Challenges and lessons learnt
+ 7. Literate programming in the age of low code and AI
+ 8. Conclusions and outlook
+
+About the speaker:
+
+Associate Professor of Computer and Data Science at Lyon College in
+Batesville, AR. He joined the Lyon faculty in 2021, on leave of absence
+ from the Berlin School of Economics and Law. He earned a PhD in theoretical
+ physics (lattice gauge theory). He has published widely in different areas,
+ including: neural nets, multigrid applications, knowledge management,
+ e-learning, literate programming, process modeling, and data science. He is
+ associate editor of the International Journal of Data Science, editorial
+ board member of the International Journal of Big Data Management, and
+ corresponding member of the Institute for Data-Driven Digital
+ Transformation (d-cube) in Berlin, Germany. Emacs user since ca. 1990.
