摘要: The undergraduate computer science curriculum is generally focused on skills and tools; most students are not exposed to much research in the field, do learn how navigate literature. We describe fiction reviews (and specifically fiction) used as a gateway reviews. Students little about current or recent topic that stirs their imagination, search for, read critically, compare technical papers related chosen book, movie, TV show.
