Undergraduate computer education will benefit from this project''s focus on the preparation of students for a computing and technology workplace that is increasingly diverse and trans-disciplinary. This project involves a partnership between Argonne National Laboratory (Argonne), Joliet Junior College (JJC), and Governors State University (GSU). This group will also work with the Chicago metropolitan regional higher education community, computing professionals from across the regional industrial sectors, the research community, and the not-for-profit community. Together they will engage in a process of identifying the relevant knowledge, skills, and other qualities required for computing professionals in the Chicago metropolitan region as well as project future needs and trends. The major goals of the project are: 1) establish partnerships and leaderships in the CISE community in the Chicago metropolitan region that focus on transforming computing education, 2) build an innovative, trans-disciplinary model for undergraduate computing education, 3) create student learning experiences especially accessible for the adult learner.As a model for developing undergraduate computing education, the outcomes of this project may define a new focus on preparation for the diverse computing and technology workplace. This project pursues better preparation for computing careers by defining curricula that provide opportunities to develop an understanding of application domains from industrial experience, perhaps incorporating an application domain focus into courses, workshops, student practicum, and new types of student learning experiences. This ?demand driven? strategy focuses on the requirements for success as a computing professional. The CBTeams will create a cadre of CISE faculty and students both within specific industry sectors and across application domains. The model of a regional CISE community recruited from higher education, research and industry sectors can be replicated in other metropolitan regions. The findings of the CBTeams will be relevant to other metropolitan regions and the new designs for student learning experiences are suitable for adoption by other colleges and universities.

本科计算机教育将受益于该项目的重点是为学生准备一个日益多样化和跨学科的计算机和技术工作场所。该项目涉及阿贡国家实验室（Argonne）、Joliet初级学院（JJC）和州长州立大学（GSU）之间的合作。该小组还将与芝加哥大都会地区高等教育社区、来自地区工业部门、研究界和非营利社区的计算机专业人士合作。他们将共同参与一个过程，确定相关的知识、技能和其他素质，以满足芝加哥大都市地区计算机专业人员的需求，并规划未来的需求和趋势。该项目的主要目标是：1)在芝加哥大都市地区的CISE社区中建立合作伙伴关系并发挥领导作用，专注于改变计算机教育；2)为本科计算机教育建立创新的跨学科模式；3)为成人学习者创造特别可访问的学生学习体验。作为发展本科计算机教育的一个模式，这个项目的结果可能会定义一个新的重点，为多样化的计算和技术工作场所做准备。该项目通过定义课程来为计算机职业生涯做更好的准备，这些课程提供了从工业经验中发展对应用领域的理解的机会，可能将应用领域的重点纳入课程、研讨会、学生实习和新型学生学习经验中。这个吗?需求驱动的?战略侧重于作为计算机专业人员成功的要求。CBTeams将在特定行业和跨应用领域创建一支CISE教师和学生骨干队伍。从高等教育、研究和工业部门招募区域CISE社区的模式可以在其他大都市地区复制。CBTeams的研究结果将与其他大都市地区相关，并且学生学习体验的新设计适合其他学院和大学采用。
