The workshop is targeted at teachers with no computer science or programming experience.

Would you like the resources to incorporate modern, fun, and accessible computer science elements into your math or science class? Join us for our CS4HS workshop at the University of Washington, where we will introduce you to basic computer science ideas and give you the knowledge and resources to integrate these ideas into your teaching of the natural sciences and mathematics.

Specifically, the CS4HS workshop aims to:

• Earn you either 20 clock hours from WSTA OR 2 units of university credit from the University of Washington.
• Expose you to exciting examples of computer science operating in close relationships with other disciplines.
• Teach you the basics of computational problem solving and give you the vocabulary to relate these concepts to your students and your own subject material.
• Broaden your view of computer science and the way it is shaping Washington's communities and people--and those of the entire world.
• Explore opportunities for you to help broaden your students' interest in computer science and dispel myths about what computer science is and is not.

Please see our registration page for information about how to join us, or our overview page for more information about computer science's relationship to high school, Washington state, and the world. We look forward to seeing you at the workshop!

The CS4HS workshop is a joint undertaking between the University of Washington (UW), Carnegie Mellon University (CMU), and Tim Bell's CS Unplugged program. Please see our Resources/Affiliated Groups page for more information on this collaboration.
