Course

Computational Manners

A nontraditional CSP-style course exploring coordination, complexity, protocol, and social effects through manners, rules, and human systems.

This course

  • Focus: coordination, complexity, efficiency, manners, protocol, and social rules through a computational lens
  • Students explore how interpersonal systems create downstream effects that can be modeled, analyzed, and improved
  • Examples can draw from etiquette, court process, legal systems, medical systems, and other rule-driven human interactions
  • Weekly live class: about 60 to 90 minutes

What families should know

  • This is not a traditional etiquette class and not a standard coding class either
  • It takes CSP-style systems thinking and applies it to coordination, rules, and human behavior
  • It is a good fit for students who enjoy patterns, social systems, and asking why rules exist and how they shape outcomes
  • It pairs naturally with civics, software, history, or other systems-focused courses
