This demonstration project builds and deploys culturally relevant computing curricula for Native Hawaiian M/K-8 students. By collaborating with existing programs and partners in Kāneʻohe, Hawaiʻi, including the Pacific American Foundation and Ke Kula Kaiapuni ʻo Pūʻōhala School, this project supports students in developing place-based education and Hawaiian cultural restoration practices alongside concepts of computer science. The project enables students to learn to program using the BBC Micro:bit, a pocket-sized computer with built-in sensors that can be programmed using Microsoft’s Makecode interface. In learning how to program the BBC Micro:bit, students collect data using sensors, embedded systems, and wearables to support local natural resource preservation efforts. Students learn about integrating computing and sustainability at the Waikalua Loko Iʻa, a Native Hawaiian fishpond and cultural landmark supported by the Pacific American Foundation, by engaging in culturally relevant curricula.This project explores computing education curricula for Native Hawaiian students at Ke Kula Kaiapuni ʻo Pūʻōhala School, a Hawaiian immersion bi-lingual public school. This project employs concepts of practice-linked learning to facilitate an environment for students to explore the role of computing and cultural identity across various problem-solving activities and experiences. This demonstration project is a community-oriented effort that emphasizes student interaction between the environment and computing technologies. The ongoing goals of this project are to support a team of educators, curriculum developers, ʻŌlelo Hawaiʻi language experts, and content specialists in curriculum and resource development. Furthermore, the project provides students with integrated computing opportunities during school, after-school, and summer activities, interweaving with existing place-based education at the Waikalua Loko Iʻa. Lastly, the project promotes community collaboration by reflecting on experiences, working with an advisory board, and expanding online computing education resources for Native Hawaiian learners.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.

这个示范项目为夏威夷土著M/K-8学生建立和部署与文化相关的计算机课程。通过与夏威夷岛Kāne夏威夷岛的现有项目和合作伙伴（包括太平洋美国基金会和Ke Kula Kaiapuni夏威夷岛ōhala学校）合作，该项目支持学生发展基于地方的教育和夏威夷文化修复实践，以及计算机科学的概念。该项目使学生能够学习使用BBC Micro:bit编程。Micro:bit是一种袖珍电脑，内置传感器，可以使用微软的Makecode接口编程。在学习如何为BBC Micro:bit编程的过程中，学生们使用传感器、嵌入式系统和可穿戴设备收集数据，以支持当地的自然资源保护工作。学生们通过参与文化相关课程，在Waikalua Loko I夏威夷学习整合计算和可持续性，这是一个由太平洋美国基金会支持的夏威夷本土鱼塘和文化地标。该项目探索了Ke Kula Kaiapuni夏威夷岛ōhala学校的夏威夷土著学生的计算机教育课程，这是一所夏威夷浸入式双语公立学校。该项目采用实践联系学习的概念，为学生提供一个环境，让他们在各种解决问题的活动和体验中探索计算机和文化身份的作用。这个示范项目是一个面向社区的努力，强调学生在环境和计算技术之间的互动。该项目的持续目标是支持一个由教育工作者、课程开发者、夏威夷Ōlelo夏威夷语专家以及课程和资源开发方面的内容专家组成的团队。此外，该项目为学生在学校、课后和夏季活动期间提供综合计算机会，与Waikalua Loko I夏威夷现有的基于地点的教育相结合。最后，该项目通过反思经验、与顾问委员会合作以及为夏威夷原住民学习者扩展在线计算教育资源来促进社区合作。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，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。
