Yadav, Aman; Heath, Marie K. – TechTrends: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning, 2022
The unexamined power and prejudice embedded within technologies and societies has led to direct harm to individuals of color, minoritized groups, and the US ideal of a multi-racial democracy. Rather than an accident of AI or a "glitch" of the system, these inequities highlight the invisible and oppressive architecture -- a "New Jim…

York, Julie – Childhood Education, 2023
The STEM acronym (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) has evolved into STEAM, to reflect the increasingly held view that art and creativity are essential components of math/science teaching and learning. Sadly, too few students are choosing to take computer science classes. When presented as a technical science, many students,…

Kathryn Hill; Michelle Flores; Rishika Jain; Edgar Rivera-Cash – Research Alliance for New York City Schools, 2025
This report focuses on the NYC Computer Science for All (CS4All) initiative's efforts to build schools' capacity to expand access to CS across the district. Launched in 2015, CS4All aimed to provide a meaningful CS experience to every student at least once within each grade band (K-2, 3-5, 6-8, 9-12). As the initiative matured, it also began to…

Mertala, Pekka – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2021
While computing has been (re)introduced into the basic education curricula in various countries, its actual implementation appears to be inconsistent. There are schools in which computing education is commonplace, while the implementation seems to be lagging behind in others. There is emerging evidence that some teachers do not consider computing…

Shah, Niral; Yadav, Aman – TechTrends: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning, 2023
The push for computing education in P-12 schools, which parallels the ongoing proliferation of computing in society, has accelerated in recent years. With respect to racially minoritized groups, this dynamic of computing creep has manifested in calls to "broaden participation," typically with the promise of access to economic…

Peel, Amanda; Sadler, Troy D.; Friedrichsen, Patricia – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2022
Computing has become essential in modern-day problem-solving, making computational literacy necessary for practicing scientists and engineers. However, K-12 science education has not reflected this computational shift. Integrating computational thinking (CT) into core science courses is an avenue that can build computational literacies in all…

Denning, Peter J.; Tedre, Matti – Informatics in Education, 2021
Over its short disciplinary history, computing has seen a stunning number of descriptions of the field's characteristic ways of thinking and practicing, under a large number of different labels. One of the more recent variants, notably in the context of K-12 education, is "computational thinking", which became popular in the early 2000s,…

Lodi, Michael; Martini, Simone – Science & Education, 2021
The pervasiveness of Computer Science (CS) in today's digital society and the extensive use of computational methods in other sciences call for its introduction in the school curriculum. Hence, Computer Science Education is becoming more and more relevant. In CS K-12 education, computational thinking (CT) is one of the abused buzzwords: different…

Means, Barbara M., Ed.; Stephens, Amy, Ed. – National Academies Press, 2021
Computing in some form touches nearly every aspect of day to day life and is reflected in the ubiquitous use of cell phones, the expansion of automation into many industries, and the vast amounts of data that are routinely gathered about people's health, education, and buying habits. Computing is now a part of nearly every occupation, not only…

Fowler, Brian; Vegas, Emiliana – Center for Universal Education at The Brookings Institution, 2021
Computer science (CS) education helps students acquire skills such as computational thinking, problem-solving, and collaboration. Since these skills take preeminence in the rapidly changing 21st century, CS education promises to significantly enhance student preparedness for the future of work and active citizenship. CS education can also reduce…

Computer Science Courses as a Graduation Requirement at the State and National Level: A Policy Brief
Bass, Eric; De Jong, David – International Journal of Educational Leadership Preparation, 2020
Computer science education has seen a large national push to be included in the K-12 curriculum (Fluck, Webb, Cox, Angeli, Malyn-Smith, Voogt, & Zagami, 2016; Theresa Avancena & Nishihara, 2014; Veletsianos, Beth, Lin, & Russell, 2016; Yadav, Gretter, Hambrusch, & Sands, 2016). Students are leaving schools and entering an economy…

Lindberg, Renny S. N.; Laine, Teemu H.; Haaranen, Lassi – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2019
An increasing number of countries have recently included programming education in their curricula. Similarly, utilizing programming concepts in gameplay has become popular in the videogame industry. Although many games have been developed for learning to program, their variety and their correspondence to national curricula remain an uncharted…

Webb, Mary; Davis, Niki; Bell, Tim; Katz, Yaacov J.; Reynolds, Nicholas; Chambers, Dianne P.; Syslo, Maciej M. – Education and Information Technologies, 2017
In this paper we have examined the position and roles of Computer Science in curricula in the light of recent calls for curriculum change and we have proposed principles and issues to consider in curriculum design as well as identifying priority areas for further research. The paper is based on discussions within and beyond the International…

Tamatea, Laurence – Research and Practice in Technology Enhanced Learning, 2019
Internationally, coding is increasingly introduced into primary and junior high schools (children generally aged between 5 and 15) on a compulsory basis, though not all stakeholders support this 'initiative'. In response to the public reception, discussion highlights popular argument around compulsory coding in school education. This is an…

Solin, Pavel; Roanes-Lozano, Eugenio – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2020
Many mathematics educators are not aware of a strong connection that exists between the education of computer programming and mathematics. The reason may be that they have not been exposed to computer programming. This connection is worth exploring, given the current trends of automation and Industry 4.0. Therefore, in this paper we take a closer…
