I do not have formal Massachusetts certification to teach Computer Science (I am certified in Math 9-12, Biology, Chemistry and Physics.) That can be fixed. However, I've been programming since I was 17, roughly 40 years. My first career (as a programmer) lasted for roughly 25 years. I wrote my first networked computer game in 1975 (on the educational [[Wikipedia:PLATO_(computer_system)|PLATO system]].) I was an early enthusiast of Object Oriented Languages, starting with [[Wikipedia:Smalltalk|Smalltalk-80]] (I devoured the [http://gadgets.boingboing.net/2009/06/30/byte-magazine-august.html Byte Smalltalk issue] and bought the Blue Book the instant it was available.) I was an early adopter of structured programming, UNIX, C, object oriented programming, C++, the internet, the web, HTML, etc. | I do not have formal Massachusetts certification to teach Computer Science (I am certified in Math 9-12, Biology, Chemistry and Physics.)
