Participatory Design to Set Standards for PCAS Courses

Computing Education Research Blog

Three things I find interesting: Notice where the computer science goals like “Write secure, safe, and robust code” end up. It was my job to use these standards as priorities, cover what I could, and fill in with the computer science knowledge to make these do-able. Below are the end states of the shared whiteboards.
