Description

How to change computing curricula to produce socially responsible ethical, computing professionals? Computing for the Social Good in Education (CSG-Ed) deals with methods for producing computing graduates who are focused on using their computing education towards the benefit of society. We invite participants to discuss how they would reimagine their institution’s and general computing curriculum, if they were supreme, magic wand wielding, curricular overlords. We give you a magic wand; what does your new computing curriculum look like? This free and open to all, SIGCAS-sponsored affiliated event (https://www.sigcas.org/csged/) will explore this question through prepared presentations, group activities, and the sharing of proposals among the participants and hopefully the larger computing education community. Our shared intent is to shape the next generation of computing curricula, such as the upcoming Computer Science Curricula 202X report (https://csed.hosting.acm.org/).
