Administrators: Intro to Computer Science

by | Oct 20, 2022

This session is designed to introduce school and district administrators to the world of computer science! We will explore computer science as a whole (yes, it is more than coding!) and how it can be integrated and introduced into your school or district.

The emphasis will be on the elementary and middle grades, but high school administrators are more than welcome!

Educators and facilitators at the Montgomery County Intermediate Unit (MCIU) in the 2022-2023 school year developed a curriculum focused on Computer Science (CS) concepts, rather than just specific tools, to empower students for the digital age. They used the 5 Core Concepts from the Computer Science Teachers Association (CSTA) as a foundation for K-12 CS education. Collaboration among consultants, teachers, and therapists played a vital role in ensuring equitable access to the CS curriculum for all students. The project also emphasized the potential for inclusion, allowing students with complex needs to engage in collaborative experiences and learn material typically encountered in STEM-related classes. The initiative underlines the importance of equitable and inclusive CS education as a means of empowering all individuals in an interconnected world.
