What? A new first course in computer science Collaborative: CollegeBoard, NSF, Academia (6-12/University) Designed to be an AP course: credit/placement Alternative to CS1, not replacement

Why CS Principles?

Equity, Access, Diversity

computing has long standing underrepresentation of minorities. URMs receive just: 10.6% of undergrad, 4.8% of master’s, and 3.6% of Ph.D.s degrees in computing. Ww’re also low on Under Represented Minorities but more in line with other sciences. —Taulbee Data, 2011 6 6

Who?

Themes Creativity Students creating digital artifacts Technology and computing as means for solving problems Not focused on particular tool/language People and Society Not just systems and machines

Appeal to broad audience through content and pedagogy CS Principles Introduce central ideas of computing Computational thinking practices How computing changes the world Rigorous, college-level course Engage and emphasize creativity Appeal to broad audience through content and pedagogy

Timeline 2010-11 2011-12 2012-13: Portfolio exam and beyond! Pilot I: Five colleges College Survey, Attestation 2011-12 Pilot II: 9+ colleges, 10+ high schools Test item prototype 2012-13: Portfolio exam and beyond! 2017: APCSPrinciples

Where's the Programming? To that end [solving computational problems and exploring creative endeavors], the course highlights programming as one of the seven big ideas of computer science, because programming is among the creative processes that help transform ideas into reality. Course rational, csprinciples.org

Looking Ahead Supplement funding to explore performance-based assessment Develop a recommended exam design for the course Obtain cost estimates of assessment development and administration Create the operational course and exam Produce instructional and professional development (PD) materials Conduct teacher PD The next step in moving forward would be to complete AP Exam development and create teacher professional development in support of the new course.
