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.
