Building on the previous NSF community of practitioners CSMER project, the College of Education and the Department of Computer Science at the University of Puerto Rico at Rio Piedras proposes a project to establish the building blocks of a strong and well-integrated Research-Practitioner Partnership (RPP) that will foster the integration of Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) into the public schools of Puerto Rico. Specifically, the project will build an RPP to foster the integration of the Exploring Computer Science (ECS) curriculum in Spanish in the public school system of Puerto Rico (PR), study a rapid-response support system for a cultural-linguistic equivalence of ECS curriculum in Spanish, and pilot the implementation of ECS curricula in at least two high schools in PR with a high population of Hispanic, female, and economically disadvantaged students. The project--called ECS4PR--will use a Design Based Implementation Research (DBIR) approach to build on the ECS professional development model and create a scalable, cultural-linguistic equivalent implementation of ECS curriculum in Spanish. It will co-design a strong and well integrated RPP that promotes systemic educational change in Puerto Rico. Once established, that RPP will construct a curricular adaptation model of cultural-linguistic equivalence that can guide a scalable implementation of ECS for a predominantly Hispanic population, and serve as an example for other cultures and languages underrepresented in the field of computer science.

在之前的国家科学基金会从业者社区CSMER项目的基础上，波多黎各大学教育学院和计算机科学系提出了一个项目，旨在建立一个强大且整合良好的研究从业者伙伴关系（RPP）的基石，该伙伴关系将促进计算机科学与工程（CSE）融入波多黎各的公立学校。具体而言，该项目将建立一个RPP，以促进西班牙语探索计算机科学（ECS）课程在波多黎各公立学校系统中的整合，研究西班牙语ECS课程文化语言等效的快速反应支持系统，并在波多黎各至少两所高中试点实施ECS课程，这些高中的西班牙裔、女性和经济条件较差的学生人数较多。该项目被称为ECS4PR，将使用基于设计的实施研究（DBIR）方法来建立ECS专业发展模型，并创建一个可扩展的、文化语言等效的西班牙语ECS课程实施。它将共同设计一个强大和良好整合的RPP，以促进波多黎各的系统教育变革。一旦建立，该RPP将构建一个文化语言对等的课程适应模型，该模型可以指导以西班牙裔为主的人群可扩展地实施ECS，并为计算机科学领域中代表性不足的其他文化和语言提供范例。
