ABSTRACT
The CS Principles Project is a collaborative effort to develop a new introductory course in computer science, accessible to all students. Computer Science educators at all levels have worked together on the development of the new curriculum under the direction of the College Board with support from the National Science Foundation. This special session provides an opportunity for the CS Principles project leaders to report on recent updates and new directions, and to engage in discussion on all aspects of the project with SIGCSE participants

The CS10K project: mobilizing the community to transform high school computing
SIGCSE '11: Proceedings of the 42nd ACM technical symposium on Computer science educationThe CS10K project is a large-scale, collaborative project bringing together stakeholders from wide-ranging constituencies with the goal of systematically changing the scale, curriculum, and pedagogy of teaching computer science at all levels, but ...
Implementation and Outcomes of a Three-Pronged Approach to Professional Development for CS Principles
SIGCSE '16: Proceedings of the 47th ACM Technical Symposium on Computing Science EducationOne of the greatest challenges in broadening participation in computer science is teacher preparation, as few middle and high school teachers have a formal background in computing. Further, without a credentialing program, there are limited ways to ...
