ECEP

#ECEP2025 has begun! The ECEP Alliance seeks to increase the number of students in the pipeline to computer science degrees by supporting CS education reforms. "We want to increase access to CS opportunities for ALL students!" — Jaci McCune, PhD, ECEP Director

This #CSEdWeek, Google has compiled a library of resources for U.S.-based K-12 educators. Scaling Inclusive Pedagogy is an ECEP-designed course that equips educators with resources necessary to focus on equitable access to CS in schools. Learn more: buff.ly/4g2pVBY

This year so far, we have awarded 5 states with co-sponsorships: up to $15k for each project aimed at expanding inclusion in K-12 computer science. The Co-sponsorship Program is made possible via our partnerships with @Google and @NSF. ecepalliance.org/news/2023/07/3…

@CSforCA @KaporCenter @ChildrenNow @csteachersorg @CADeptEd @elcaminocollege Thank you for leading off the summit with a great discussion about how you are putting the collective impact model to work as you broaden participation in computing! Thanks for the partnership @CSforCA

What an awesome thing to have a diverse group of amazing IL women leading #CSEd equity work for the state! @ISBEnews CS Consultant Jessie Ervin joined @csanchezcrozier from @LatinxDLN, @ChariosiTeach from UIUC, and @mrsphelpscodes from @ltcillinois in CA for the @ECEP_CS summit

Traveling home from Oakland from the @ECEP_CS Summit. What am I bringing home? An amazing network of incredible CS equity advocates, a new bond with an incredible IL team, and a box of chocolates! I am so excited to continue this work at home! @csanchezcrozier @ChariosiTeach

Reflecting on time spent @ECEP_CS summit, I am just in awe with the work & people who are trying to better society by expanding access to CS for all. CS is a social science! Glad to work with PA TEAM @somegoodideas @ProfPayton & equity fellows @wilsandrea @mathematic_AL

Leaving my first summit with @ECEP_CS and I’m exhausted! And invigorated! Let’s Broaden Participation in Computing!!!

Today, CDE Computer Science Coordinator Katherine Goyette spoke to state leaders from across the nation as a panelist with @CSforCA regarding equity in computer science education at the @ECEP_CS Summit in Oakland.

Special thanks to @NSF @Googleorg for funding this expansion and to @UTAustin @TACC for supporting the growth of the ECEP Alliance since 2018 tacc.utexas.edu/news/latest-ne…

@lauren_marg @GaDOE_CS @gsucehd Congratulations Dr. Cox! Thank you for always raising the bar on state data dashboards in service of broadening participation in computing.

Dr. Bryan Cox passed his dissertation defense today. It might surprise some that Bryan wasn't already Dr. Cox because of all the fabulous work he already does to bring CS ed to GA and beyond. I've felt so fortunate to work with him as a colleague and advisor @GaDOE_CS @gsucehd

@CSforCA Nice work!
