To improve our understanding of the state of computing education and to grow the field, the Partnership for Advancing Computing Education (PACE) proposes to organize an interdisciplinary planning workshop on computing education research. PACE, a coalition of the ACM, the Association of Information Systems, IEEE-Computer Society, Computer Science Teachers Association, the Computing Research Association, and the National Center for Women & IT, is dedicated to improving the preparation of the computing workforce. Through discussion among leading computing and education researchers, we propose to achieve the following goals:(i) to develop a shared understanding of the state of computing education research across subdisciplinesof computing, identifying gaps and overlaps;(ii) to identify present strengths and future opportunities for research on computing education;(iii) to assess the viability of building mechanisms for improved infrastructure, such as a research coordination network, and(iv) to encourage knowledge sharing across the fragmented domains of study.

为了提高我们对计算教育状况的理解并发展该领域，推进计算教育合作伙伴关系（PACE）提议组织一个关于计算教育研究的跨学科规划研讨会。PACE是ACM，信息系统协会，IEEE计算机协会，计算机科学教师协会，计算研究协会和国家妇女IT中心的联盟，致力于提高计算劳动力的准备。 通过在领先的计算和教育研究人员之间的讨论，我们建议实现以下目标：（i）发展跨学科的计算教育研究的状态的共同理解，确定差距和重叠;（ii）确定计算教育研究的现有优势和未来的机会; ㈢评估建立改善基础设施的机制的可行性，如研究协调网络，及（iv）鼓励各学科分享知识。
