ABSTRACT
The 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 focusing in particular on computer science in U.S. high schools as well as introductory computing at the college level. As part of the systemic changes in teaching computer science the CS10K project aims to have 10,000 teachers in 10,000 high schools teaching a new curriculum by 2015.

Scaling up for CS10K: Teaching and Supporting New Computer Science High School Teachers (Abstract Only)
SIGCSE '16: Proceedings of the 47th ACM Technical Symposium on Computing Science EducationIncreasing need for computing expertise in our everyday lives and in the workforce, paired with declining enrollments in computing by women and underrepresented minorities have made it critical to provide students with experiences in computing before ...
Supporting CS10K: A New Computer Science Methods Course for Mathematics Education Students
SIGCSE '15: Proceedings of the 46th ACM Technical Symposium on Computer Science EducationWe describe a new methods of teaching computer science (CS) course tailored for mathematics education majors but also applicable to others interested in teaching CS. Goals of the course are enhancing their ability and confidence in developing and ...
Update on the CS principles project
SIGCSE '12: Proceedings of the 43rd ACM technical symposium on Computer Science EducationThe 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 ...
