The Children share passion for enriching students' learning experiences developing well-rounded citizens. program combines academic challenge rigor Children's WE.org education citizenship model. Service creates an opportunity...
The premise for the development of Advanced Placement (AP) Computer Science Principles course was aimed at broadening participation in computing, as a high school level CS course. Since AP courses carry credibility with millions students who take Exams they are recognized prospects obtaining college education, hope that would lead to increased Exams, especially historically excluded including girls, Black, Hispanic, and Native American students, well those disabilities. raises opportunities...

To investigate and identify promising practices in equitable K-12 computer science (CS) education, the capacity for education researchers to conduct this research must be rapidly built globally. Simultaneously, concerns have arisen over last few years about quality of that is being conducted lack equity-focused research.
It is often assumed that women in CS fully understand and appreciate diversity, equity, inclusion advocate for the needs of all women. However, there exist highly publicized examples computing beyond where intersection race gender (and experiences Black, Latina, Indigenous women) were ignored by White This panel convenes diverse to discuss importance challenges same-gender allyship, advocacy, activism.

This workshop focuses on content in two curriculum modules for AP Computer Science Principles (CSP) developed by the College Board. They highlight instructional approaches teaching concepts about 1) Internet and 2) interplay between creative aspects of computing impact society. The module activities allow students to construct their own solutions problems similar some that builders faced. topics Creativity Global Impact were chosen because they have rich potential increasing interest with...
The AP Computer Science Principles assessment model comprises two main components: 1) an end-of-course Exam (i.e., a paper-pencil, multiple choice questions); and 2) through-course that includes (2) performance tasks in which students complete during class time. This workshop focuses on content skills included one of the tasks: Create -- Applications from Ideas. In this task, are expected to collaborate with another student development process writing program, because each will submit...
