Roger,

As a trained Biologist, I would like to see the 'Science' put back into 
Computer Science.

What I mean is to teach the Scientific Method:

idea -> hypothesis -> testing -> theory ...

The Scientific Method is a wonderful way to teach logical reasoning and 
problem-solving.  Human minds are so incredible that they can make leaps in 
logic;  however, the computer does not skip logic steps so when working with 
a computer it is important to be able to break down problems and solve them.
