Georgia Learns the SCRIPT to Make Computer Science Education Accessible to All

*********************************
There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Across the United States, qualified computer science teachers are hard to come by. In fact, Georgia only had 93 teachers certified to teach computer science (CS) in the 2017-18 academic year.

To help address this critical shortage, a delegation of Georgia educators, researchers, and leaders recently traveled to La Jolla, Calif., for the 2019 SCRIPT Symposium hosted by CSforALL. The Georgia delegation joined more than 150 participants from 13 states in January for the Strategic CSforALL Resource & Implementation Planning Tool (SCRIPT) workshop.
