为学习者提供真实的跨学科经验是培养对计算机科学作为一门支持广泛应用的学科的积极看法的一种策略。我们设计了一门利用气候科学作为跨学科背景的高中迷你课程，因为它对当今的年轻人很感兴趣，并提供了利用真实数据来研究问题的真实计算应用的机会。本课程旨在让学生参与气候变化、数据可视化、分布式计算，并鼓励使用先进的数据抽象和实践。我们使用了NetsBlox，它是Snap！使真实的数据集和Web服务可以通过易于使用的块访问。一位古气候学家与学生们进行了气候科学讨论和研究问题。调查后对问题的回答探究了学生获得的见解，揭示了通过这种跨学科体验对学生对CS的看法产生的积极影响，以及它如何扩大了他们对未来使用数据和计算进行STEM探究的视野。我们分享课程细节，以供高中和外卖使用，以帮助促进丰富的编程经验，提高学生对计算的看法。
Providing learners with authentic interdisciplinary experiences is one strategy to foster positive perceptions of CS as a discipline that supports a breadth of applications. We designed a high school mini course using climate science as an interdisciplinary context, since it is of interest to today's youth and provides opportunities to engage with authentic applications of computing that leverage real data to examine issues. The course was designed to engage students in climate change, data visualization, distributed computing, and motivate the use of advanced data abstractions and practices. We used NetsBlox, an extension of Snap! that makes real datasets & Web services accessible through easy-to-use blocks. A paleoclimatologist led climate science discussions and research questions with students. Post-survey responses to questions probing insights students gained shed light on the positive impact on students' perceptions of CS through this interdisciplinary experience, and how it expanded their horizons for future STEM inquiry using data and computing. We share curricular details for use in high schools and takeaways to help promote rich programming experiences that improve students' perceptions of computing.
