Computer Science Education Week Website is Live

The Computer Science Education week web site is now live at http://www.csedweek.org/ Some good stuff there. I especially like the “Why computer science” page.

  • Computing is ubiquitous; it touches everyone’s daily lives
  • Computer science-related jobs remain strong despite extraordinary economic challenges
  • Numerous issues depend on computing, including the following:
    • Securing our cyber-infrastructure
    • Protecting national security
    • Implementing electronic health records
    • Increasing efficiency of the energy infrastructure

And there are quite a few resources listed in the computer science education resource page.

Microsoft is a proud sponsor of Computer Science Education week and has a web site up at http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/events/csew/ for the occasion. Articles and information about computer science careers, learning resources and links to other CS Ed Week sites and information.
