Do you need resources to show your high school students the exciting world of computer science? Join us for a 3-day summer workshop at Carnegie Mellon University where you can learn how to use lots of exciting examples in your classes to open the world of computer science to your students!
Do you need resources to introduce your high school students to the field of computer science? Would you like to more fully integrate principles of computing and computational thinking into your classroom? The University of Michigan's CS4HS workshop is designed to support the activities of computer science teachers and to establish a dialog about the focus and requirements of collegiate CS programs, so that high school students can be better prepared for a future in computer science.
I checked out their website and I find it a bit of a joke. First off, their Introduction to CS includes topics like PL/SQL which is proprietary. Oracle states that their Introduction to CS workshop is free and then when you go to enrol it is only available in China, India, and Brazil. I was expecting them to offer something like the FREE course that Stanford offered this spring by Nick Parlante.
