ABSTRACT
This poster reports on the second iteration of a workshop to help elementary teachers create lesson plans that integrate culturally relevant computer science (CS) learning opportunities. Findings include revisions to the workshop from the previous year and reveal the extent to which teachers used supports for culturally relevant pedagogy to refine their lesson ideas. The presentation will discuss results and share workshop artifacts.

International Perspectives on CS Teacher Formation and Professional Development
ITiCSE '17: Proceedings of the 2017 ACM Conference on Innovation and Technology in Computer Science EducationDrawing on Mishra and Koehler's "TPACK" model [1], we recognize that great Computer Science (CS) teaching demands great pedagogy, great technology skills and great subject knowledge. The main challenge facing any jurisdiction in implementing a CS ...
Upper Elementary and Middle Grade Teachers' Perceptions, Concerns, and Goals for Integrating CS into Classrooms
SIGCSE '20: Proceedings of the 51st ACM Technical Symposium on Computer Science EducationAs efforts to integrate computer science into K-8 teaching in the US are dramatically rising, professional development workshops for teachers are becoming widespread. An open challenge for the CS education community is to understand teachers' needs and ...
