通过高中大学预修课程(AP)计算机科学原理(CSP)课程来扩大计算机参与的努力一直很有希望,但并不是所有的学校都提供AP课程,也不是所有的学生都选修这些课程。该项目询问通过并行招生(CE)提供CSP是否可以覆盖更多AP无法覆盖的学生。在两个州的第一年CSP- ce课程中,这项研究发现CSP- ce教室,就像AP CSP教室一样,在性别方面没有反映学校的人口统计数据。然而,一个州的CSP-CE课程确实吸引了西班牙裔和美洲原住民学生,其比例与学校人口相当。即使学校转向远程学习,学生的成功率仍然很高:80%以上的学生获得了大学学分。正在进行的研究将研究未来的人群,以及影响决定提供CS-through-CE的因素。这张海报将吸引中学以上和K-12计算机科学教育者、计算机科学原理教师以及其他对扩大K16参与感兴趣的人。
Efforts to broaden participation in computing through the Advanced Placement (AP) Computer Science Principles (CSP) course in high school have been promising, but not all schools offer AP courses and not all students take them. This project asks whether offering CSP through concurrent enrollment (CE) might reach more students AP does not. In its first year of CSP-CE courses in two states, this research found CSP-CE classrooms, much like AP CSP classrooms, did not mirror the demographics of their schools in terms of gender. However, CSP-CE classes in one state did attract Hispanic and Native American students in proportions comparable to the school populations. Even though schools shifted to distance learning, student success rates were high: upwards of 80% earned college credit. Ongoing research will study future cohorts, as well as factors that influence decisions to offer CS-through-CE. This poster will be of interest to post-secondary and K-12 CS educators, CS Principles teachers, and others interested in broadening participation in K16.
