Curricular Practices for Computing for Social Good in Education

The development of the CS Curriculum Guidelines, CS2023, includes a parallel and collaborative effort to provide supplemental material that supports the guidelines. A series of peer-reviewed articles are being created by experts in various aspects of the design and delivery of Computer Science programs. The Computing for Social Good committee is developing an article that provides an international perspective on Computing for Social Good in Education (CSG-Ed). This article will include an overview of the global efforts in CSG-Ed, description of models for incorporating CSG into curricula, including examples, and recommendations and best practices for including CSG in curricula. This panel will inform the CCSCNE community about the CSG-Ed effort while also obtaining comments and suggestions about the effort from the computing education community. During the panel session, the panelists will provide an overview of the committee's effort, extracts of content from the article, and examples of research results related to demonstrating the impact of CSG-Ed. Ample time will be allotted for discussion, questions, and suggestions by the attendees.
