培训CS K-12职前和在职教师，CS教育研究以及CS教育博士/教育博士的职业途径的机会正在发生，但往往是以不协调的方式。我们主张，现在是CS和教育合作开发计算机科学教育新的联合学位课程，并探索联合教师任命的正确时机。计算机课程的高本科入学率和非专业人员对CS课程的兴趣日益增加，为成功启动课程提供了独特的机会。随着越来越多的CS本科生成为本科助教，并从非学习者的角度看待教学和学习，他们对教育的兴趣也有所增加。对CS教育的兴趣日益浓厚，包括在K-12和本科阶段进行CS教学的需要，为CS教育研究人员提供了有趣的工作机会。随着计算机科学系开发新的本科学位课程和扩大班级规模，我们如何有效地向不同的受众教授计算等问题的研究？如何评估CS学习？什么是文化回应型广告？很重要.为了回答许多这些问题和相关问题，CS部门应该积极参与CS教育研究，从跨学科课程的研究生培养到研究项目。这个BOF将提供一个平台，讨论这样的研究生课程-从证书到博士-可以和应该是什么样子，创建它们存在什么挑战，以及不同背景的学生应该如何在CS和教育的相关基础上得到培训。
Opportunities for training CS K-12 pre-service and in-service teachers, research in CS Education, and career pathways for PhDs/EdDs in CS education are happening, but often in an uncoordinated way. We advocate that now is the right time for CS and Education to collaborate on developing new joint degree programs in Computer Science Education and to explore joint faculty appointments. High undergraduate enrollment in computing programs and the increasing interest in CS courses from non-majors represent a unique opportunity for starting successful programs. As more of CS undergraduates are undergraduate TAs and see teaching and learning from a non-learner perspective, their interest in education has also increased. The growing interest in CS education, including the need for effecting CS teaching at both K-12 and the undergraduate level, provide interesting job opportunities for CS education researchers. As CS departments develop new undergraduate degree programs and scale class sizes, research on questions like How do we teach effectively computing to different audiences? How can we assess CS learning? What are culturally responsive pedagogies? is important. To answer many of these and related questions, CS departments should be actively engaged in CS Education research, from training graduate students in interdisciplinary programs to research programs. This BOF will provide a platform for the discussion on what such graduate programs - from certificate to a PhD - can and should look like, what challenges exist to creating them, and how students with different backgrounds should get trained in the relevant foundations of CS and Education.
