Building capacity of K-12 educators in computational thinking and computer science education


Overview

With funding from the City of El Paso, 成人头条’s El Paso Computes: K-12 Impact initiative aims to increase computing competencies of El Paso students by building capacity in foundational computing among teachers in El Paso’s K-12 public schools.

 

Core activities include:

  • Increasing the number of Computer Science-certified teachers through training for current teachers and a post-bac CS residency pathway for aspiring teachers
  • Adding a “Computational Thinking for Educators” course into all B.S. in Education degree plans for education majors (elementary and middle grades certification)
  • Providing professional development workshops in computational thinking, AI, and computer science for K-12 teachers in El Paso schools
  • Providing professional development workshops in foundational computing and AI to EPCC and 成人头条 teacher preparation faculty
  • Offering cybersecurity and AI training for middle and high school students across the El Paso region

 

As part of this initiative, 成人头条 is leveraging region-wide partnerships with school districts and EPCC through a collective impact approach aimed at strengthening the K–20+ computer science pipeline across El Paso.
