Where is CS taught in Washington?

OSPI provides an annual report on K-12 CS student engagement.

Across the state, the trends are clear:

• Many schools and districts are not offering CS courses at all

• Most students in CS classes are White and Asian boys.

• Most teachers are white and most are men.

Check the specific trends in your district.

Thanks to Lawrence Tanimoto from CSTA Washington for their ongoing work to curate state data and presented in Tableau.

NOTE: The word "Demo" appears on these because Lawrence is using these dashboards for other purposes and audiences for demonstration purposes, not because the data is incomplete or inaccurate.

Are there resources for broadening participation computing?

Many:

• The National Center for Women & Information Technology (NCWIT) has many resources for systematically engaging girls in CS education.

• The National Girls Collaborative Project has many resources for engaging girls in CS education.

• AccessComputing has an extensive knowledge base of strategies for supporting youth with disabilities.

• Microsoft has a guide for inclusive CS teaching.

• IGNITE Worldwide partners with teachers and companies to inspire girls and non-binary students to pursue CS.

These resources largely focus on recruitment and retention strategies that engage and successfully teach excluded students.
