BPEC: FACTS: Foundations of Achievement through Computational Thinking Skills

布劳沃德县公立学校将把研究人员、教师、管理人员和一名评估人员聚集在一起，制定一项研究计划，研究通过严格的计算机课程教授计算思维技能，如何不仅增加学生（尤其是女孩和代表性不足的少数民族）对计算机的接触和参与，而且提高他们在科学和数学课程中的学术成就。该规划项目将调整结构化计算机课程，使其融入14所不同小学的K-5核心课程，并衡量干预措施对读写、数学和科学成绩的影响。该规划项目将制定计划，收集学生升入中学时的纵向数据。

Broward County Public Schools will bring together researchers, teachers, administrators, and an evaluator to develop a research plan that examines how computational thinking skills taught with a rigorous computing curriculum will increase not only exposure to computing and engagement in school of students, especially girls and underrepresented minorities, but also their academic achievement in science and mathematics courses. This planning project will adapt a structured computing curriculum to be integrated into the K-5 core curriculum in 14 diverse elementary schools and measure the effect of the interventions on achievement in literacy, mathematics and science. The planning project will develop plans for gathering longitudinal data as students matriculate to middle school.
