2024-12-03 15:00:00Z | Dec 03, 2024 | WEBINAR: Exploring State and CSTA CS Learning Standards |
Dec 03, 2024 3:00 PM - 4:30 PM |
As a prelude to the CSTA K-12 Standards revision process, CSTA and the Institute for Advancing Computing Education (IACE) engaged in mapping CSTA standards to K-12 CS standards across all 50 states, focusing on (1) the level of similarity of each state standard to the CSTA standards, (2) the framing of the state standards according to their cognitive complexity, (3) trends in state standards in recent years (including AI and other emerging topics), (4) details of standards for each state (e.g., grade level or grade band, relation to other subjects and CTE), and (5) themes in topics covered in the standards. We now have a dataset covering nearly 10,000 state CS standards. The first half of this webinar will provide an introduction and overview to the standards comparison project and the second half will be an opportunity for active, hands-on, guided exploration that will allow attendees to engage with the data and discover its implications for their own context. This session will provide attendees with rich data and analysis on these topics, allowing participants from any US state to better understand both the national landscape as well as their own state’s CS standards.
