As the number of computer science opportunities rapidly increases in schools across the US, there is a growing recognition that teacher and student outcomes are dependent upon the policy environments which they inhabit. Tennessee has recently enacted a series of policy initiatives that poise the state to implement computer science programs at scale in K-12 schools. However, there is a need for a clear definition of what high quality computer science education looks like to create standards aligned pathways for students and generate buy-in from school leaders. This partnership between CSforAll and CodeCrew will connect the state level actions with school and district level plans and data, focusing explicitly on the pathways designed and experienced by students as they move through K-12 programs. The team will also design teacher pathways with a focus on initial teacher preparation as well as the development of advanced teacher knowledge. This researcher-practitioner partnership will connect recent implementation actions in the state of TN with school and district level plans and data. The partnership will explore the SCRIPT (Strategic CSforALL Resource and Implementation Toolkit) for implementation in TN school districts. The implementation activities seek to understand how strategic planning using SCRIPT materials, routines, and data tools impact buy-in, decision making, and actions taken at the school district level in TN, and the impacts, both direct and indirect, of these resources on the capacity, access, participation, and experience of historically marginalized or underrepresented populations in standards aligned computer science pathways from K-12.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.

随着计算机科学的机会在美国各地的学校迅速增加，人们越来越认识到，教师和学生的成果取决于他们居住的政策环境。田纳西州最近颁布了一系列政策举措，使该州能够在K-12学校大规模实施计算机科学项目。然而，需要明确定义高质量的计算机科学教育是什么样子的，以便为学生创建标准一致的途径，并获得学校领导的认可。CSforAll和CodeCrew之间的这种伙伴关系将把州一级的行动与学校和地区一级的计划和数据联系起来，明确关注学生在K-12课程中设计和体验的途径。该团队还将设计教师途径，重点是初始教师准备以及高级教师知识的发展。这种研究人员与实践者的伙伴关系将连接最近在田纳西州的实施行动与学校和地区一级的计划和数据。该伙伴关系将探讨在TN学区实施的战略CSforALL资源和实施工具包。实施活动旨在了解如何使用战略规划的材料，例程，和数据工具的影响买入，决策，并在田纳西州学区一级采取的行动，以及直接和间接的影响，这些资源的能力，访问，参与，和历史上被边缘化或代表性不足的人口在标准一致的计算机科学途径的经验，从K-该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
