Hospital teachers are state-employed educators who provide K-12 instruction to children in the hospital. We conducted research to understand how technology is used in hospital classrooms, an area which has been relatively underexplored. We conducted semi-...

So far, in the Netherlands there has been no compulsory education in digital literacy or informatics in primary or secondary education. In 2022, the Dutch Ministry of Education, Culture and Science tasked the Netherlands Institute for Curriculum ...

While Online Learning is growing and becoming widespread, the associated curricula often suffer from a lack of coverage and outdated content. In this regard, a key question is how to dynamically define the topics that must be covered to thoroughly ...

While there has been exciting recent progress in developing curricula for data education, more work is needed to establish connection points between data science, computer science, and other disciplines. This position paper argues for a broader, more all-...

Research Problem. With increasing initiatives and policies to bring computer science (CS) learning opportunities to primary school students within the United States, there is a growing need to understand how to integrate CS into various other subjects. ...

Context Introducing Computer Science (CS) into formal education can be challenging, notably when considering the numerous stakeholders involved which include the students, teachers, schools, and policy makers. We believe these perspectives should be ...

Introductory computer programming courses are widely popular, however have notoriously high attrition rates, as much as 50% [5], and poor overall satisfaction scores on prior surveys. Core concepts and syntax of the language being taught can be difficult ...

A series of Working Groups has met at previous ITiCSE conferences to explore ways of incorporating cloud computing into courses and curricula, including mapping industry job skills to knowledge areas and those areas to student learning objectives. The ...

A curriculum for an introductory module on programming for Finnish upper secondary school was developed in collaboration with tertiary education. The module was refined over three school years and the attitudes and progress of the students were ...

This paper presents an analysis of the skills and professional competencies that recent graduates from computing and software engineering programmes recommend for current students. Previous studies have not investigated the viewpoints of early-career ...

An internship promotes the idea of learning through experiencing and has been an important way for data science students to gain practical knowledge and skills for solving real-world data science challenges. However, despite its importance, there has ...

A series of previous Working Groups has met at ITiCSE conferences to explore ways of incorporating cloud computing into courses and curricula, including mapping industry job skills to knowledge areas (KAs) and KAs to student learning objectives (LOs). ...

The AI4GA project is developing a nine-week elective course called Living and Working with Artificial Intelligence and piloting it in several Georgia middle schools. Since we aspire to educate all students about AI, the course addresses a wide range of ...

In recent years, there has been a growing emphasis on using computational thinking (CT) to teach mathematical concepts. The integration of math+CT enables students to gain a deeper understanding of both mathematical and computer science (CS) concepts. ...

As artificial intelligence involves and shapes personal and professional lives, there is a critical need to nurture and prepare AI-enabled problem-solvers. FutureMakers is designed as a six-week program that introduces foundational knowledge and ...

Over the past year, our AI4GA team of university faculty and middle school teachers have co-designed a middle school AI curriculum. In this poster we share how we used co-design both as a tool for collaboratively developing engaging AI activities and as ...

One of the impacts of the CS For All movement has been an increased demand for K-12 teachers who are well-qualified to teach computer science. Unfortunately, the pool of qualified educators is much smaller than the demand, and the pipeline producing ...

Three previous Working Groups (WGs) met at ITiCSE conferences to explore ways to help educators incorporate cloud computing into their courses and curricula by mapping industry job skills to knowledge areas (KAs). These WGs identified, organized, and ...

Micro- and Small Enterprises (MSE) and the persons working there (owners/managers, employees) are often neglected in policies and initiatives concerning cybersecurity and data privacy. Communication strategies are targeting IT-departments or IT-...
