The Georgia Research Corporation proposes to create a new distance-learning medium for computing education especially for in-service high school teachers based on ideas from instructional design and educational psychology. In-service high school teachers are particularly time-constrained (and thus need efficiency) and they are more metacognitively aware than other students (and thus able to better inform the project design). The new medium will combine multiple modalities, worked examples, and structure based on cognitive models of designers' knowledge. The research questions are (1) Will the teachers learn CS knowledge in this on-line setting? (2) Will the teachers will be more efficient at programming activities? and (3) Will the teachers will find the materials useful and satisfying? Because of its focus on teachers, the project can potentially have broad impact, in particular on the strategies for training the 10,000 teachers envisioned in the CS 10K Project. The project will establish models and design guidelines that can be used for the creation of other learning materials, including materials for students, for example, in the proposed new CS Principles AP course.

佐治亚研究公司提议根据教学设计和教育心理学的思想，为计算机教育特别是在职高中教师创建一种新的远程学习媒介。 在职高中教师的时间特别有限（因此需要效率），并且他们比其他学生更具元认知意识（因此能够更好地为项目设计提供信息）。新媒介将结合多种模式、工作示例和基于设计师知识认知模型的结构。研究问题是（1）教师会在这种在线环境中学习计算机科学知识吗？ (2) 教师在编程活动中会更有效率吗？ (3) 教师会发现这些材料有用且令人满意吗？由于该项目以教师为重点，因此可能会产生广泛的影响，特别是在 CS 10K 项目中设想的培训 10,000 名教师的战略方面。该项目将建立模型和设计指南，可用于创建其他学习材料，包括为学生提供的材料，例如拟议的新 CS 原理 AP 课程中的材料。
