The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) was awarded $999,999 under a Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.070) to implement Pathways for Advancing Computing Education 2 (PACE2). PACE2 is a researcher-practitioner partnership facilitated by MIT's Teaching Systems Lab, CSforMA, and a consortium of 12 diverse school districts in Massachusetts. The goal is to broaden participation in computer science among underserved groups like females, Black and Hispanic/Latinx students, those from low-income backgrounds, English learners, and students with disabilities. Over the two-year period from October 2022 to September 2025, PACE2 will provide professional learning experiences and develop tools to improve equity in teaching practices and monitor progress toward equal opportunities and outcomes in computer science education across participating districts.
