Workshop
WiPSCE 2016: The 11th Workshop in Primary and Secondary Computing Education
Veranstaltungsort
Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster, Leonardo-CampusMünster, Deutschland
Beschreibung
General Information
Research in primary and secondary computing education is a young field with strong ties to national educational systems. Nevertheless, its theories, methods, and results are internationally applicable and of interest to researchers and practitioners in the field.
WiPSCE aims at improving the exchange of research and practice relevant to teaching and learning in primary and secondary computing education, teacher training, and related research.
WiPSCE has its roots in a long-running workshop of the German computing education community and is run in cooperation with ACM SIGCSE. Accepted papers will be published in the WiPSCE 2016 proceedings as part of the ACM International Conference Proceedings Series. The proceedings will be included in the ACM Digital Library.
WiPSCE 2016 will be held jointly with ISSEP 2016 (more details can be found here).

This presentation will explore how Google perceives its role in supporting efforts to embed computational thinking and computer science more deeply into formal and informal education. The session will describe several key programs and engage the audience in a conversation about how we can make these programs more relevant and accessible. | ||
