Overview

The Computer Science Education research group studies theories, frameworks, pedagogical methods, and data related to educating students at all levels in areas related to computer science and more generally computational thinking. The research aims to address critical deficiencies in CS education within K-12 and higher education, as well as address the well-documented lack of diversity in the computing field. The research also aims to understand how integrating material about computational thinking into non-CS courses may enhance learning.
