Conference: 2024 CS for All PI and Community Meeting at the Computer Science Teachers Association Meeting

SageFox咨询公司与计算机科学教师协会（CSTA）合作，将支持2024年面向所有人的计算机科学（CSforAll）首席研究员（PI）和社区会议。CSforAll项目支持合作伙伴关系和研究，帮助高中教师教授计算机科学，K-8教师将计算机科学和计算思维融入他们的课堂，学区在所有年级创建计算途径。本次会议将为CSforAll项目资助项目的主要研究人员提供机会，分享他们的研究成果、有前途的实践和经验教训。PI会议有意与2024年CSTA会议在同一地点举行，以利用这一首要场所分享PreK-12计算机科学从业者的研究和实践。2023年“全民创业计划”项目负责人和社区会议将支持活跃的“全民创业计划”获奖者之间的跨项目学习。目标是：(1)通过接触计算机科学教师社区最新的研究和实践观点，为所有项目提供信息；(2)提供一个平台，传播所有的计算机科学研究成果、有前途的实践和经验教训，让听众准备好改善计算机科学教育经验；(3)在致力于扩大计算机参与的研究人员和实践者之间创造合作和联网的机会；(4)将评估人员聚集在一起，以支持对CS for All项目的项目评估。对于这次活动，我们迫切需要精心策划和组织议程、场地和会议后勤。这笔赠款为场地和后勤提供资金，包括会议注册、视听和CSforAll PI和社区会议的会议空间。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。

SageFox Consulting, in collaboration with the Computer Science Teachers Association (CSTA), will support the 2024 Computer Science for All (CSforAll) Principal Investigator (PI) and Community Meeting. The CSforAll program supports partnerships and research that helps equip high school teachers to teach computer science, K-8 teachers to incorporate computer science and computational thinking in their classes, and school districts to create computing pathways across all grades. This convening will provide opportunities for the principal investigators of projects funded by the CSforAll program to share their research outcomes, promising practices, and lessons learned. The PI meeting is intentionally co-located with the 2024 CSTA Conference, to leverage the premier venue for sharing PreK-12 computer science practitioner research and practice.The 2023 CSforAll PI and Community Meeting will support cross-project learning among active CSforAll grant awardees. The goals are to (1) inform CS for All projects through exposure to the most current research and practice perspectives of the CS teacher community; (2) provide a venue for disseminating CS for All research outcomes, promising practices and lessons learned with an audience ready to improve the CS educational experience; (3) create opportunities for collaboration and networking among researchers and practitioners committed to broadening participation in computing; and (4) bring evaluators together to support the program evaluation of the CS for All program. For this event, there is a pressing need to meticulously plan and organize agenda, venue and conference logistics. This grant provides funding for the venue and logistics, including conference registration, audio visual, and meeting space for the CSforAll PI and Community meeting.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.
