The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Computing and Communication Foundations awarded a $300,000 Project Grant to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) to deploy and assess innovations in computer science education in prison settings. This 2-year grant, titled "BPC-DP: Improving Computing Education for Incarcerated College Students," aims to discover and invent best practices for teaching college-level computing courses to incarcerated individuals, a population that is disproportionately impacted by mass incarceration. The research will address gaps in academic preparation, the needs of adult learners, and challenges faced by students with learning disabilities, as well as how to effectively teach computing in a prison setting with limited internet access. The findings are expected to diversify the computing student population and workforce, especially among underrepresented racial, age, and socioeconomic status groups. No subawards are planned under this grant.
