It is critical that all students have a basic understanding of our digital world to ensure their future success in all realms of college and career readiness. However, the playing field is not level; the numbers of women students, students of color, and students with disabilities, for example, remain low. It is therefore important that intentional strategies and measures that are specifically aimed at inclusive access (the forAll part of CSforAll). This The Cleveland Tech Talent Pipeline will build upon several NSF-supported efforts in Cleveland to develop pathways for students in computer science and information technology from high school to career, community college and/or four-year colleges and universities. Through a collaboration between Cleveland State University and the Cleveland Metropolitan School District (CMSD), a network of pathways will be implemented through a range of activities, including high school mathematics and computer science courses, internships, and summer programs for CMSD students. The lessons learned from this project will be highly valuable for states and communities across the US working to introduce CS at scale in K-12 schools and create pathways from high school to and through higher education.Since 2013, Cleveland State University (CSU), in collaboration with Cleveland Metropolitan School District (CMSD) and other local groups, has been serving students in CMSD to ensure that they have access to computer science knowledge, skills and careers. Leveraging prior NSF-funded research on the impact of CS courses on underrepresented students of color in Cleveland, The Cleveland Tech Talent Pipeline (CLE TTP) will develop pathways for students interested in careers in CS and information technology from high school to community college and/or four-year colleges and universities utilizing high school mathematics and CS courses and summer internships with mathematics support for students in the CMSD. This Research-Practitioner Partnership (RPP) will: 1) support the development of summer workshops and internship programs for high school students from CMSD, 2) incorporate CS and information technology into the high school curriculum, 3) create a transition for CMSD students to career, two-year and four-year degree programs, 4) track and provide support for students from ninth grade through college and career from CMSD who participate in the CS courses, summer programs and/or internships, and 5) develop a dissemination strategy to share lessons learned with other districts in the local, state and national communities. The project team will also conduct research on the impacts of the workshop/internship programs and the CS high school curriculum. This project has the potential to inform the CS community about CS pathways for students in high need urban districts across the country.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

至关重要的是，所有学生都有我们的数字世界的基本了解，以确保他们在大学和职业准备的各个领域的未来成功。然而，竞争环境并不公平;例如，女学生、有色人种学生和残疾学生的人数仍然很低。因此，必须制定专门针对包容性获取的有意战略和措施（“人人享有服务”的“人人享有服务”部分）。该克利夫兰技术人才管道将建立在克利夫兰的几个NSF支持的努力，为学生在计算机科学和信息技术从高中到职业生涯，社区学院和/或四年制学院和大学的途径。通过克利夫兰州立大学和克利夫兰大都会学区（CMSD）之间的合作，将通过一系列活动，包括高中数学和计算机科学课程，实习和CMSD学生的暑期课程，实施一个路径网络。从这个项目中吸取的经验教训将是非常有价值的国家和社区在美国各地的工作引入CS在K-12学校的规模和创造途径，从高中和通过高等教育。自2013年以来，克利夫兰州立大学（CSU），与克利夫兰大都会学区（CMSD）和其他当地团体合作，一直为CMSD的学生提供服务，以确保他们有机会获得计算机科学知识，技能和职业。利用之前NSF资助的关于CS课程对克利夫兰代表性不足的有色人种学生的影响的研究，克利夫兰技术人才管道（CLE TTP）将为对CS和信息技术职业感兴趣的学生开发途径，从高中到社区学院和/或四年制学院和大学，利用高中数学和CS课程以及暑期实习，为CMSD学生提供数学支持。该研究与实践者合作伙伴关系（RPP）将：1）支持CMSD高中生暑期工作坊和实习计划的发展，2）将CS和信息技术纳入高中课程，3）为CMSD学生创造一个过渡到职业，两年制和四年制学位课程，4）跟踪和提供支持的学生从九年级到大学和职业从CMSD谁参加CS课程，暑期课程和/或实习，制定传播战略，与地方、州和国家社区的其他地区分享经验教训。项目团队还将对研讨会/实习计划和CS高中课程的影响进行研究。这个项目有可能告知CS社区关于CS途径的学生在高需要的城市地区在全国范围内。这个奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得通过评估使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准的支持。
