Today kicks soured the nations first Computer Science Education Week. The noesis of this week is to encourage students to see most the develop that powers the computers, applications and technology they ingest everyday. Computer Science Education Week emphasizes that our society's aspirations module be met by individuals who hit an progressively deep understanding of machine technology.
We've been intellection most structure that Google could hold with machine noesis activity for several years. After all, our see engine has been utilised in activity since its inception how whatever essays, research writing and theses begin with a Google search? Today, we'd like to repeat whatever of what we've been doing at Google to advance CS education. Our efforts focus on quaternary strategic areas, with an inflection on technology in set curriculum.
Use of Google tools to hold teaching and learning
Having a web-based mutual document, spreadsheet or presentation that students in a assemble or collection can every view and modify online has had an large effect on cooperation in education. So we provide a free suite of our communication & cooperation applications fashioned especially for schools and universities. We also utilised our tools and infrastructure to physique and hold a accord of teachers who hit developed room noesis and activities around these applications.
Increasing the admittance to and quality of Computer Science curriculum
We hit whatever grouping at Google who know most every areas of machine science, whatever with backgrounds and experience in education. With this deep humble of machine noesis knowledge, we developed Google Code University to hold faculty update their collegian machine noesis curriculum, and the Summer of Code, which gives students the possibleness to develop programs for different unstoppered source code projects.
Integrating technology curriculum crossways K-12 set subjects
A assemble of Google engineers and K-12 "teaching fellows" is working on building and investigating models of curriculum to encourage innovation. These curriculum models revolve around "computational thinking", a problem-solving framework that draws on the intellection and analysis skills that machine scientists ingest everyday. Our noesis is to combine computational intellection crossways person areas in K-12 by connecting these skills, which are already a conception of set curriculum, more explicitly to machine science. We're also taking this a travel further by desegregation simple planning concepts in pertinent areas of set K-12 curriculum, such as algebra. Our wish is that by making machine noesis more circumpolar and display its connection to every person area, students module experience the full noesis and utility of technology in areas of welfare to them. Integrating CS into another subjects module also hit the key added benefit of leveling the playing field, so that whatever more students module hit the possibleness to gain a deeper understanding of computing.
Supporting organizations and individuals finished accord outreach
We've also worked for eld with teachers and nonprofits to physique primeval welfare in the Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) fields. Besides providing financial hold and sponsorship for whatever external organizations, we've developed a sort of scholarship and intern programs to process the sort of women and underrepresented minorities in STEM and machine science. In constituent to these conventional programs, every day Googlers every over the concern care visits with students at nearby schools and accord centers to teach, present workshops and school talks, and to share their personal stories on how they became machine scientists and engineers.
We're dead delighted to be a co-sponsor of the first Computer Science Education Week. As a company, we've benefited so such from advances in machine noesis and the creativity of machine scientists. We also know that the incoming enthusiastic innovators in machine noesis are discover there, ready to be inspired to create technologies that change our concern and benefit our society. We propose our children, parents, teachers and educational institutions to clear more attention to this grave field, and we module continue to do our share.
