项目摘要

In order to thrive and even survive in the globalized marketplace of ideas and innovation, the U.S. must aggressively meet the challenge of increasing the number of students who complete degrees in computing areas. It is critical for our economic and social health, as well as national security, to maintain a globally competitive computing workforce. The Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts that employment of computer and information technology occupations is projected to grow faster than the average for all occupations (12% from 2014 to 2024). In order to keep our nation on the cutting edge of technology, we must retain more domestic students in computing programs. A 2012 report on undergraduate STEM education from the President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST) cites "uninspiring" introductory courses and an unwelcoming atmosphere from faculty as major factors contributing to attrition. The project at the University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP) aims to address the PCAST findings by re-imagining what it means to learn, whose knowledge counts, and what counts as knowledge in the context of Computer Science (CS). The UTEP model transforms faculty into change agents and fosters the development of positive student identities early in the curriculum to impact students' trajectories in CS and beyond. As important, the acquired skills and knowledge from the proposed effort are expected to transfer to other subjects in students' studies, decrease students' time to degree, and strengthen their preparedness for entry into the computing workforce. Further, the development of inclusive environments with members who value multiple and diverse experiences and perspectives is needed to address global challenges and opportunities.The overarching goal of the project is to cultivate socially conscious connectedness among students, faculty, and industry. This will be accomplished by expanding a curriculum centered on heightened social interaction driven by an understanding and appreciation for the cultural contributions of diverse students to CS in a globalized world. The project objectives are to (1) transform the CS curriculum (i.e., content, pedagogical principles, social interaction, and faculty beliefs) to one that builds students' identities as computer scientists and considers societal and global contexts in problem solving; and (2) develop a climate of connectedness through a shared sense of purpose among faculty focused on establishing cultural competence and inclusive environments. The outcome will be twofold: (i) a program of study that motivates, connects, and immerses students from diverse backgrounds in the profession throughout their plan of study; and (ii) faculty with deep cultural competence who use professional practice-based learning to foster systemic change. The resulting model transforms CS teaching and learning through deep change to curriculum grounded in social consciousness, cultural competency, and practice informed by the department's unique expertise and experiences as a Hispanic-serving institution and leader of the Computing Alliance of Hispanic-Serving Institutions (CAHSI). The theoretical underpinnings of the project are framed on theories of learning informed by situated cognition, derived from sociocultural theory. In order to generate new knowledge about a process-oriented approach to deep educational change in CS, the effort includes ethnographic research on the change process and the education process paying particular attention to diversity, inclusion and professional practice.
为了在全球化的创意和创新市场中蓬勃发展,甚至生存下来,美国必须积极应对增加计算机领域完成学位的学生数量的挑战。保持一支具有全球竞争力的计算劳动力对我们的经济和社会健康以及国家安全至关重要。劳工统计局预测,计算机和信息技术职业的就业增长速度预计将快于所有职业的平均水平(2014年至2024年为12%)。为了让我们的国家保持在技术的前沿,我们必须留住更多的国内学生学习计算机程序。美国总统科学与技术顾问委员会(PCAST)2012年发布的一份关于本科生STEM教育的报告指出,“缺乏启发性”的入门课程和教师不受欢迎的氛围是造成人员流失的主要因素。德克萨斯大学埃尔帕索分校(UTEP)的这个项目旨在通过重新想象在计算机科学(CS)的背景下学习意味着什么、谁的知识重要以及什么是知识来解决PCAST的调查结果。UTEP模式将教师转变为变革推动者,并在课程早期培养积极的学生身份认同,以影响学生在CS及以后的发展轨迹。同样重要的是,从拟议的努力中获得的技能和知识预计将转移到学生学习的其他科目,减少学生获得学位的时间,并加强他们进入计算机工作队伍的准备。此外,需要与重视多种不同经历和观点的成员一起发展包容性环境,以应对全球挑战和机遇。该项目的总体目标是培养学生、教师和行业之间的社会意识联系。这将通过扩展以加强社会互动为中心的课程来实现,该课程以理解和欣赏不同学生在全球化世界中对CS的文化贡献为驱动。该项目的目标是(1)将CS课程(即内容、教学原则、社会互动和教师信念)转变为一个建立学生作为计算机科学家的身份并在解决问题时考虑社会和全球背景的课程;以及(2)通过教师之间的共同目的感发展一种相互联系的氛围,专注于建立文化能力和包容性环境。结果将是双重的:(I)一个在整个学习计划中激励、联系和沉浸在不同专业背景的学生的学习计划;(Ii)具有深厚文化能力的教职员工,他们利用以专业实践为基础的学习来促进系统性变化。由此产生的模式通过深刻改变课程来改变CS的教与学,课程基于社会意识、文化能力和实践,该部门作为一家拉美裔服务机构和西班牙裔服务机构计算联盟(CAHSI)的领导者,拥有独特的专业知识和经验。该项目的理论基础是基于情境认知的学习理论,该理论源于社会文化理论。为了产生关于以过程为导向的方法以实现CS深刻的教育变革的新知识,这项工作包括对变革过程和教育过程的民族志研究,特别关注多样性、包容性和专业实践。
