Culturally Relevant Elementary Computer Science Curriculum on the Wind River Reservation
Fort Washakie, Fremont County School District #38, and Wyoming Indian Schools, are partnering to develop a curriculum that integrates Computer Science education standards with Indian Education for All standards. The project goal is to increase teachers’ self-efficacy for teaching computer science standards and increase pedagogical and content knowledge.
Project members will share how their teams are developing, piloting, and refining curriculum units that integrate computer science with Indian Education for All standards in their unique school communities. We’ll discuss our process as well as hear from educators about successes and challenges so far.
This is a partnership with American Institutes for Research, the WY Department of Education, and the nonprofit BootUp and funded by the National Science Foundation’s CSforAll RPP.
