Title: Building an Infrastructure for Computer Science Education Research and Practice at Scale
The goal of this workshop is to bring together the existing community of researchers working on Infrastructure Design for Data-Intensive Research in Computer Science Education and a community of Learning at Scale researchers focused on Computer Science Education. While both communities share many similar goals and could greatly benefit from each other work, the interaction between the communities is small. We hope that the proposed workshop will be instrumental in bringing together like-minded researchers from different communities, establishing collaboration, and expanding the scope of infrastructure project to address critical scaling issues.  more » « less

    There is a growing community of researchers at the intersection of data mining, AI, and computing education research. The objective of the CSEDM workshop is to facilitate a discussion among this research community, with a focus on how data mining can be uniquely applied in computing education research. For example, what new techniques are needed to analyze program code and CS log data? How do results from CS education inform our analysis of this data? The workshop is meant to be an interdisciplinary event at the intersection of EDM and Computing Education Research. Researchers, faculty, and students are encouraged to share their AI- and data-driven approaches, methodologies, and experiences where data transforms how students learn Computer Science (CS) skills. This full-day hybrid workshop will feature paper presentations and discussions to promote collaboration.

  3. Welcome to the 4 th Workshop on Education for High Performance Computing (EduHiPC 2022). The EduHiPC 2022 workshop, held in conjunction with the IEEE International Conference on High Performance Computing Data & Analytics (HiPC 2022), is devoted to the development and assessment of educational and curricular innovations and resources for undergraduate and graduate education in Parallel and Distributed Computing (PDC) and High Performance Computing (HPC). EduHiPC brings together individuals from academia, industry, and other educational and research institutes to explore new ideas, challenges, and experiences related to PDC pedagogy and curricula. The workshop is designed in coordination with the IEEE TCPP curriculum initiative on parallel and distributed computing ( hitps://tcpp.cs.gsu .edu/curriculum/) for undergraduates majoring in computer science and computer engineering. It is supported by C-DAC, India and the US National Science Foundation (NSF) supported Center for Parallel and Distributed Computing Curriculum Development and Educational Resources (CDER). Details for attending the workshop are available on the HiPC webpage (HiPC). The effect of pandemic on academic and research community seems now to be globally receding as was evident from the enthusiastic in-person participation of conference delegates. Please visit the EduHiPC-22 webpage for the complete online proceedings, including copies of papers and presentation slides: EduHiPC 2022 | NSF/IEEE-TCPP Curriculum Initiative.

  4. Research at the intersection of human-computer interaction (HCI) and health is increasingly done by collaborative cross-disciplinary teams. The need for cross-disciplinary teams arises from the interdisciplinary nature of the work itself—with the need for expertise in a health discipline, experimental design, statistics, and computer science, in addition to HCI. This work can also increase innovation, transfer of knowledge across fields, and have a higher impact on communities. To succeed at a collaborative project, researchers must effectively form and maintain a team that has the right expertise, integrate research perspectives and work practices, align individual and team goals, and secure funding to support the research. However, successfully operating as a team has been challenging for HCI researchers, and can be limited due to a lack of training, shared vocabularies, lack of institutional incentives, support from funding agencies, and more; which significantly inhibits their impact. This workshop aims to draw on the wealth of individual experiences in health project team collaboration across the CHI community and beyond. By bringing together different stakeholders involved in HCI health research, together, we will identify needs experienced during interdisciplinary HCI and health collaborations. We will identify existing practices and success stories for supporting team collaboration and increasing HCI capacity in health research. We aim for participants to leave our workshop with a toolbox of methods to tackle future team challenges, a community of peers who can strive for more effective teamwork, and feeling positioned to make the health impact they wish to see through their work.

    In 2017 a project was started to form a connected community of practice (CCOP) of projects funded to conduct computer science education research through a research practice partnership methodology. In this poster, organizers from that CCOP detail strategies to encourage ongoing exchange and collaboration in the community of researchers. Strategies began with offering resources broadly useful to all projects in an early phase of their RPP work. Over time, through surveying participants, a more theme-based strategy to appeal to subsets of the community was employed. The poster explores the themes used in the third year of the project and share attendance and engagement data. Generalizable recommendations for encouraging shared data gathering goals and resource curation are offered for similar communities of practice devoted to researching computer science education, and ideas on how organizers can measure the success of such communities are shared.
