This project supports the running of a two-and-a-half day event, a Strategic Summit on the Computing Education Challenges for Community Colleges, designed to frame the challenges of the next five years and beyond of computing education. A diverse group of experts, from industry as well as from academia, is brought together to engage in focused round table discussions to address just one question: "What are the major challenges confronting computing programs in community colleges spanning the next five to ten years?" This then constitutes the primary goal of this project and the core intellectual merit. The proceedings from this event serve to steer and influence initiatives and funding proposals to NSF in the coming years. A secondary goal, arising naturally from the first, is to subsequently share these conclusions widely - to achieve the highest level of broader impact - in order to spur initiatives and grant proposals which respond to these challenges.

该计划支持举办为期两天半的活动，即社区学院计算机教育挑战战略峰会，旨在探讨未来五年及以后计算机教育面临的挑战。来自工业界和学术界的不同专家小组聚集在一起，集中讨论一个问题：“未来五到十年，社区大学计算机项目面临的主要挑战是什么？”这就构成了这个项目的主要目标和核心知识价值。从这个事件的程序服务于指导和影响倡议和资助建议NSF在未来几年。从第一个目标自然产生的第二个目标是随后广泛地分享这些结论- -以达到更广泛的影响的最高水平- -以便推动应对这些挑战的倡议和拨款建议。
