Wednesday (5/31)
- Read up on, watched videos, and took notes about CS terminology, learning about what the broader idea of the field really is.
- Took notes on the visualizations used in the Alabama dashboard from ECEP and glanced at the other states.
- Attended the all-group meeting with Dr. Brylow about research techniques and helpful tips and tricks for getting started/researching/digging deeper.
- Met with research team for CS Education and determined which projects we were going to be taking on, determining next steps.
- I'll be gathering and synthesizing factors of other states' Landscape Reports, seeing what does and doesn't work, and then comparing that data to what we have in Wisconsin.
- Additionally, I was given many articles to get me going on my research of CS Education.
- I combed through the Kapor Center Article on Culturally Responsive Teaching in Computer Science, taking notes on key pieces of information and connecting what was written to previous knowledge of CRT.
