DEMOCRATIZE COMPUTING

The DCL is helping Bay Area middle and high-schools offer some of their first computer science courses. The DCL runs a Google-funded summer workshop for high school teachers and led by DCL Co-Directors Alark Joshi and David Wolber. This year's workshop focused on the new Advanced Placement (AP) course in Computer Science Principles (CSP), and the teaching of the Mobile CSP curriculum (mobile-csp.org, which Professor Wolber helped create)... The DCL works closely with the San Francisco Unified School District (SFUSD) and is proud to contribute to their amazing CS FOR ALL program which has almost over-night added computer science throughout the curriculum. The DCL has also contributed to a new app building module for San Francisco middle schools... DCL Co-Director David Wolber is a leader in CS education involving MIT App Inventor, a visual blocks language that allows beginners to learn coding by programming their phones and tablets.
