Collaborative Research: Type 1: CE 21: Computing Principles for All Students' Success (ComPASS)

加州大学圣地亚哥分校和圣地亚哥州立大学提出了所有学生成功的计算原理(COMPASS)项目，该项目将建设当地教授拟议中的新的高级选修CS原理(CSP)课程的能力。Compass将为教师专业发展创造新的课程和方法内容。该项目将开发和评估教学内容知识课程，以支持采用最佳方法和做法教授CSP内容。它将继续与圣地亚哥地区的计算机教育界接触，并为其提供的培训和支持量身定做，以吸引大学教师以及具有和没有计算机背景的在职和在职教师。它将建立全面、多管齐下、灵活和可扩展的基础设施，以培训和支持教师和教师，并将在2所大学、5所社区学院和15所高中试行该基础设施。该项目的研究部分将评估混合学习方法在向不同教师群体传授有效教学技术方面的使用情况。此外，选择试点地点是为了反映为代表性不足的人群提供服务的承诺，研究计划包括对这些学生对课程内容的态度及其对计算的信念的定性研究。Compass将促进在计算基础和计算思维方面为所有学生实施基础广泛、包容和激励的教育，无论他们最终的职业道路如何。COMPASS项目将直接影响105名职前教师、19名在职教师和约5000名学生。如果成功，它的模式可以在其他大学、学院和学区采用。

The University of California, San Diego and San Diego State University propose the Computing Principles for All Students' Success (ComPASS) Project that will build local capacity for teaching the proposed new Advanced Placement CS Principles (CSP) course. ComPASS will create novel curricula and methodology content for teacher profession development. The project will develop and evaluate pedagogical content knowledge curriculum to support the adoption of best methods and practices in teaching CSP content. It will continue the engagement of the San Diego-area computing education community, and tailor its offered training and support to engage university faculty, as well as in-service and pre-service teachers both with and without computing backgrounds. It will build comprehensive, multi-pronged, flexible, and scalable infrastructure to train and support teachers and faculty and it will pilot that infrastructure at 2 universities, 5 community colleges, and 15 high schools. The project's research component will evaluate the use of blended-learning approaches in transferring effective pedagogical techniques to diverse instructor groups. In addition, the pilot sites have been chosen to reflect a commitment to serving underrepresented populations and the research plan includes a qualitative study of the attitudes of those students with respect to course content and their beliefs about computing. ComPASS will foster the implementation of broadbased, inclusive, and motivational education in computing foundations and computational thinking for all students, regardless of their eventual career path. The ComPASS project will directly impact 105 pre-service teachers, 19 in-service teachers, and about 5000 students. If successful, its model could be adopted at other universities, colleges, and school districts.
