Computing Community Consortium Blog

The goal of the Computing Community Consortium (CCC) is to catalyze the computing research community to debate longer range, more audacious research challenges; to build consensus around research visions; to evolve the most promising visions toward clearly defined initiatives; and to work with the funding organizations to move challenges and visions toward funding initiatives. The purpose of this blog is to provide a more immediate, online mechanism for dissemination of visioning concepts and community discussion/debate about them.

November 23rd, 2015 / in Announcements, NSF, policy, Research News / by Helen Wright

Computer Science Education Week (CSEdWeek) is an annual program designed to engage students of all ages in computer science. It is observed each year, in recognition of the birthday of computing pioneer Rear Admiral Grace Murray Hopper (December 9, 1906). This year, CSEdWeek is December 7-13, 2015. What started as a grassroots movement and then inaugurated by Congress in 2009, CSEdWeek has quickly grown with over 100,000 CS Ed Week events planned around the world. There are many ways to participate and to bring computing to others, such as hosting students in your research lab, visiting a high school class to share your stories with students, or by linking up with a community organization […]
