CSA will help administrators and teachers address challenges related to teaching CS, such as access to high-quality professional learning for teachers and technical infrastructure. CSA\u2019s collaborative work will bring together the University of Tennessee, three rural East Tennessee school districts, and key community organizations. Building and strengthening this partnership will enhance learning and lifelong outcomes for students by increasing their opportunities to engage with CS in the elementary grades. For stakeholders as well as researchers, the project will lead to an enhanced understanding of how rural school districts create opportunities for students to engage meaningfully with CS and to a strong partnership that will enhance CS education in Appalachia in the years to come.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-1388\" src=\"https:\/\/cehhs.utk.edu\/ceems\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/25\/2020\/03\/NSF-logo.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"122\" height=\"129\" \/><\/p>\n<p>CFA is an NSF-funded project (Award Id: 1923509) and the co-principal investigators are Dr. Josh Rosenberg, TPTE and Dr. Amir Sadovnik, Computer Science, UTK<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>https:\/\/youtu.be\/RNzo-47lFaw About Computer Science for Appalachia School districts in East Tennessee struggle to provide substantial computer science (CS) learning experiences [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":273,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1397","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 -
