Capacity Building in Computer Science

计算机协会提交的这一探索性提案旨在发展一个由个人和组织组成的社区，通过扩大对课程计算机科学标准的需求的认识，提供多层次的专业发展，开展和传播计算机科学教育的研究，并促进这一学科在学校成为一个独特的研究领域，共同解决K-12计算机科学教育中的关键问题。具体而言，目标是(1)识别和选择对计算机科学有明确承诺的个人，(2)为改善K-12计算机科学提供有效工具和策略的专业发展，(3)开发旨在提高计算机科学意识的材料工具包，以及(4)促进K-12领导者和大专教师之间的指导，重点是高中计算机科学教师。传播工作包括计算机科学教师协会？（CSTA）网站，推广成功项目的使用，参与全国教育计算会议，并在CSTA上发表文章。她的声音和倡导者。规划评估计划确定了评估人员的使用，以监控所提议活动的实施和有效性，并向项目提供频繁的反馈。进行适当的修改。

This exploratory proposal submitted by the Association for Computing Machinery aims at developing a community of individuals and organizations working together to address critical issues in K-12 computer science education by broadening the awareness of the need for curriculum computer science standards, providing multiple levels of professional development, conducting and disseminating research in computer science education, and promoting this subject as a unique field of study in schools. Specifically, the objectives are (1) to identify and select individuals with demonstrated commitment to computer science, (2) to provide professional development on effective tools and strategies for the improvement of K-12 computer science, (3) to develop a toolkit of materials aimed at increasing awareness in computer science, and (4) to facilitate mentoring between K-12 leaders and post-secondary faculty, with a focus on high school computer science teachers. Dissemination efforts include the Computer Science Teacher Association?s (CSTA) website to promote the use of successful projects, participation in the National Educational Computing Conference, and publication of articles in CSTA?s Voice and Advocate. Program assessment plans identify the use of an evaluator to monitor the implementation and effectiveness of proposed activities, and to provide frequent feedback to the project?s leadership for appropriate modifications.
