Dear colleagues,

I know things have been particularly challenging the last few weeks, and I hope you have been able to care for yourselves and your loved ones.
Creating the conditions for equitable K-12 CS launches very soon, and to prepare for the meeting, we ask that you please complete the following, which will take you under one hour:

A) Please read "What is Computer Science?" a sub-section of the California Computer Science Standards Introduction https://docs.google.com/document/d/1J7kmmnI_T53pzgklcCd1nHSs7BGJ1xsZ9Dtd92Vn-NY/edit?usp=sharing

B) Please watch this video from the K-12 CS Framework: https://youtu.be/CD0EIGfr950

C) Please read through the following article as time permits: Koshy, S., et al., (2021). The Computer Science Access Report. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1_z1ak6UGFDWy7IvcniN2iNBizIB0RWuq/view?usp=sharingn.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/Computer-Science-in-California-Schools.pdf

Please let me know if you have any questions. See you soon!

Dear Mariam,

Thank you so much for your interest in participating in the UC Berkeley professional learning series, "Creating the Conditions for Equitable K-12 Computer Science." We would like to offer you an opportunity to participate. Here, you will find a series overview. Our primary objective is to support district and school administrators, counselors, program coordinators, and teacher leaders to design (and implement) an equity-centered computer science program or pathway.

This learning series was created in partnership between the UC Berkeley Graduate School of Education, the Oakland Unified School District, and the Kapor Center. During the six-month series, participants will learn from a range of academic researchers, CS practitioners, and advocates.

Our series will begin on Monday, January 24 at 4:30 PM, and I will separately share a calendar invite, Zoom link, and preparatory materials with you. Subsequent meeting dates are listed in the program overview. Participants will receive a stipend of at least $1,500 for completing the series.

We still have spaces available, so if you would like to invite your colleagues, please share this link to the application: https://bit.ly/CreatingEquitableCS.

Please do not hesitate to send any questions.

Warm regards,

Dear colleagues,

Thank you for participating with us in our inaugural session of "Creating the conditions for equitable K-12 CS." We left the meeting feeling inspired by your contributions and excited for the work to come.

Below you will find links for Dr. Scott's presentation and the two publications she mentioned (we previously shared the access report with you):

Dr. Scott's slide deck: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1ZESszbtAuymkbIPr3MsJbdKkv98YAfvOoLKHD97J4zk/edit?usp=sharing

The Culturally Responsive-Sustaining CS Ed Framework: https://www.kaporcenter.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/1_CRCSFramework-Report_v7_for-web-redesign-.pdf

As a reminder, please look at the CSforCA data tool (https://csforca.org/the-data/) where you will find more about who has high school access to computer science in your school, district, or county.

For our next meeting on Monday, Feb. 28, 2022, be prepared to share the following:
What bright spots can you identify in your district, county, or school?
To what degree are girls and BIPOC students currently enrolled in CS?
What questions are you holding?

Enjoy the rest of the week,
Richard
