Has great wit and sarcasm, clear lectures, good examples. He helps students period. The only thing I don't know is what is he drinking from the red cup he brought to every lecture . . .
Yeah, CS isn't really a technology class. I agree. I didn't really focus on the languages taught. I focused on the background materials that were taught. The programming is just really to re-enforce what you learned and apply it. I took both the DB and OOP class as well and I definitely didn't focus on the programming piece of it. I focused on how can I create a better modular design or how can I improve on a query. I actually had to rewrite the entire code for the final project in the Database class because, like you said, it wasn't really up to date. Someone else wrote it, but it wasn't the professor teaching the class.
I think thats where SISTA comes in. That program was never there when I went to school, but it seems like it fills those gaps. If you want to learn AI or how to program a game or an IOS app. You would go the SISTA route. I don't even think CS 337 was available when I was there as well.
I've gone through a few of the Stanford online courses. That's why I say it's somewhat comparable. https://www.coursera.org/
But overall, I do agree. CS is NOT a technology program. If you want to learn the fundamentals of computers and how they work, CS is the way to go. I'm talking more on how to tackle a program and the approach you should take. What algorithms fit best or even prove that an algorithm would work in any given scenario.

If you want to practice some Python syntax, I found https://edabit.com on /r/programming a little while ago. It has a bunch of little activities in a variety of languages, I've been using it to brush up on Python myself.
Those is the safe I got from Amazon to lock up my passports and important paperwork.

I use the turning point app on my phone for the clicker questions. You still have to buy a license like everyone else, but it has worked just fine for me for the last couple years.
You have to be connected to the school wifi, login with your UA account, and put in the Session ID (not the channel) to access the questions.
