Workshop on Modern Programming Language Curricula

编程语言在计算机科学中发挥着至关重要的作用，它提供了一个灵活而强大的界面，人类通过它控制计算机系统。在过去的十年里，编程语言的设计和实现已经取得了显着的进步，以应对计算机科学和技术的普及。该奖项将资助一个新的研讨会，该研讨会将汇集来自研究，教育和工业机构的编程语言专家，讨论编程语言设计，实现和应用在现代本科计算机科学教育中的作用。 与会者将批判性地评估编程语言教育的状况，并确定所需的转型变化，以最好地准备在美国教育系统的本科生竞争，促进和推进计算机科学和技术的快速变化的领域。该研讨会将产生一份报告，以传播由此产生的想法，以更广泛的社区，激发持续努力，使编程语言课程跟上高等教育课程的步伐尖端课程是必不可少的，以准备美国劳动力，这是全球竞争力，能够产生和应用新知识，并率先推进计算机科学和技术。

Programming languages play a critical role in computer science by providing a flexible and robust interface through which human beings control computer systems. In the past ten years, programming language design and implementation has advanced significantly in response to the pervasiveness of computer science and technology. This award will fund a new workshop that will bring together programming language experts from research, educational, and industrial institutions to discuss the role of programming language design, implementation, and application in modern, undergraduate computer science education. The participants will critically evaluate the state of programming language education and identify the transformational changes needed to best prepare undergraduates in the US educational system to compete in, to contribute to, and to advance the rapidly changing field of computer science and technology. The workshop will produce a report to disseminate the resulting ideas to the broader community to spark continued efforts to have programming language curriculum keep pace with higher-education curricula Cutting-edge curricula are essential to prepare a U.S. workforce that is globally competitive, able to generate and to apply new knowledge, and to take the lead in advancing computer science and technology.
