COEHDnews -- Week of Fri, November 16, 2018 Spotlight EDGE-CSEd hosts workshops on computer science education<http://education.utsa.edu/spotlight/article/edge_csed_hosts_... [Cs pic] The EDGE-Computer Science Education Group (EDGE-CSEd) hosted a series of teacher professional development workshops on computer science education this week. On Nov. 12, eleven high school and middle school teachers from North East ISD attended an all-day workshop on computer science teaching practices and object-oriented programming held at the EDGE Center. This workshop also included visits to the Department of Computer Science, where teachers gained insight on how they can prepare their students to transition to studying computer science at the university level. Two two-hour programming bootcamps on Python were also offered for pre-service teachers in UTeachSA and the COEHD on Nov. 13 and Nov. 14. These workshops were intensive introductions to basic programming for aspiring math and science teachers. Led by Dr. Timothy Yuen from the Department of Interdisciplinary Learning and Teaching, EDGE-CSEd<http://edge.ist-utsa.org/edge-csed.html> is a cross-campus collaborative of faculty and students from the COEHD and the College of Science aimed at creating more access to, improving student success and teaching, and investigating best practices in computer science. These three workshops were the first service activities for EDGE-CSEd. For more information, contact Yuen at timothy.yuen@utsa.edu<mailto:timothy.yuen@utsa.edu>.
