This National Science Foundation (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program Project Grant award of $1,999,992 to Hofstra University will fund the "Exploring Computation Integrated into Technology and Engineering II (EXCITE II)" initiative. The project aims to provide professional development workshops and resources to enable technology and engineering teachers across 9 states to offer pedagogically sound Advanced Placement Computer Science Principles (AP CSP) instruction, with a focus on engaging underrepresented minority student populations in computer science. The award will support the creation of replicable state-level Researcher-Practitioner Partnerships (RPPs) to recruit and train teachers, as well as research and evaluation of the impact on CS teaching, learning, and student outcomes. The project is designed to expand equitable access to CS education through this teacher professional development model, eventually scaling the program to additional states after the initial grant period.
