Because of changes in the field of computer science, the context and content of computer science education at school is continuously evolving. But new topics alone do not lead to concrete and suitable courses. Too often, demands of the practice obscure the underlying theory. Learning theories, didactical knowledge and computer science itself should be heeded in educational practice and the desi...

The New York City Foundation for Computer Science Education was launched in the summer of 2013 to ensure that all children in New York City public schools have access to computer science education. Over the past year and a half the foundation has worked with eight (8) programs to expand access to computer science, reaching more than 10,000 students in the 2014-2015 school year alone. In this pa...

An ideal Science for the existing Theory of Science (Popper, Carnap, Kuhn, Chalmers) is Physics. Not many modern Sciences conform to that ideal, however. Philosophy of Science (Theory of Science) as it is today is not of much help when trying to understand e.g. Computer Science. There is an urgent need to broaden the Theory of Science perspective in order to match the present situation within t...

This paper is the second part of two which reports on an investigation into the general area of UK undergraduate computer science education. More specifically, this second part draws from the first in order to derive key recommendations for UK undergraduate computer science education. Next, it subjects some of the recommendations to a dilemma analysis in order to highlight why they pose dilemma...

We sketch a pedagogical ‚theory‘ based on Bruner’s educational psychology that might set computer science education for students and teachers on a well-founded basis and integrate different approaches to teach it, stress its long-lasting fundamentals and give a feeling of its essence. For it we (1) define the notion of fundamental ideas more precisely by several criteria, (2) present a collecti...

Service-learning matches knowledge with experience. It offers special benefits for computer science education. Opportunities for community and global engagement exist with direct benefits for American and overseas students of computer science and engineering.
