The approach to improving computing education is to connect computer science teachers at different levels in order to develop a community focused on common goals and activities that will revitalize both undergraduate and high school computing education. The disciplinary commons of computing educators (DCCE) takes the path of transforming computing education by transforming computing educators. This project will focus on introductory computer science teacher in Georgia. Any change or reform in education must involve the teachers; this project starts with the teachers. The strategy is to gather introductory computer science teachers from different universities along with high school computer science teachers, especially advanced placement teachers. These teachers naturally have common interests in approaches and common topics to discuss. High school teachers are interested in what happens at the post-secondary level and how best to prepare their students. University teachers want to enhance the transition of students from high school and to encourage more students to learn computing. The discussions are encouraged by developing engaged researchers and community leaders. Different approaches will be supported, with ideas seeded into the community. The ongoing research will enhance the teaching done, which has been shown to contribute to student learning. The project will create a model for teachers in other areas of computing and the rest of the country.

改善计算教育的方法是将不同级别的计算机科学教师联系起来，以建立一个专注于共同目标和活动的社区，从而振兴本科和高中计算教育。 计算教育者的学科共享（DCCE）走的是通过改造计算教育者来改造计算教育的道路。 这个项目将侧重于介绍计算机科学教师在格鲁吉亚。 教育的任何变革或改革都必须涉及教师;这个项目从教师开始。 该策略是聚集来自不同大学的入门计算机科学教师沿着高中计算机科学教师，特别是高级安置教师。 这些教师自然对方法和共同的讨论主题有共同的兴趣。 高中教师感兴趣的是在中学后一级发生了什么，以及如何最好地准备他们的学生。 大学教师希望加强学生从高中的过渡，并鼓励更多的学生学习计算。 通过发展参与的研究人员和社区领袖来鼓励讨论。 将支持不同的方法，并将想法植入社区。 正在进行的研究将加强教学，这已被证明有助于学生的学习。 该项目将为其他计算机领域和全国其他地区的教师创建一个模型。
