Overview
CSforMA is the Massachusetts Computer Science Education Hub for passionate stakeholders dedicated to ensuring that all K-12 students have access to, are able to take and be successful in high-quality computer science coursework. Our priority is to broaden the participation of females, students of color, rural students, and other underserved populations.
Our work consists of:
Consulting with K-12 School Districts in the Implementation of Digital Literacy and Computer Science (DLCS)
Developing coursework, academic pathways and work-based learning opportunities to allow students to achieve the DLCS standards and gain valuable college and career success
Providing professional development experiences for educators to help them gain DLCS Licensure and remain current in the field
Connecting stakeholders through a web presence, annual CSforMA Action Summits and CSforMA Celebrations of Achievement.
CSforMA has its roots in the non-profit BATEC: Broadening Advanced Technological Education Connections, which began in 2003. CSforMA gained non-profit status in 2020, to focus on K-12 computer science education in Massachusetts.
