Carter Zenke
I teach as a Senior Instructor in Computer Science at Harvard University. As academic head of CS50, I oversee educational productions and operations for CS50's 5M+ students, online and on-campus. With CS50's team of producers, I recently created our Introduction to Databases with SQL and am now teaching our new Introduction to Programming with R, both freely available online.
