This Cyberlearning Integration and Deployment (INDP) project brings together an interdisciplinary research team from the MIT Media Lab, the Digital Media and Learning Hub at University of California Irvine, and Harvard University's Berkman Center for Internet and Society to explore development and use of new types of online tools, activities, and gatherings to engage more young people in developing computational fluency, particularly youth from groups currently underrepresented in computing. The project builds on the success of the NSF-funded Scratch programming language and online community (http://scratch.mit.edu), where more than 1.5 million young people have created interactive stories, games, animations, and simulations based on their interests. The Coding for All project aims to provide new pathways into Scratch for youth from populations that are not currently drawn in easily to technological and scientific discourse and activities. The PIs are designing and refining a variety of interest-based microworlds -- introductory programming environments that are customized to particular interests of youngsters in those populations -- to provide easier and more inviting entry points for getting started with coding, and they aim to develop guidelines for designing microworlds that are simple enough not to be overwhelming, engaging enough to draw youngsters in, rich enough to allow creative expression, and tuned well enough to the interests and prior knowledge of new participants to foster curiosity and learning. In addition, the team is exploring how to use personnel in libraries and other spaces where low-income youth congregate to support initial introduction to and engagement with these microworlds and developing and refining tools to support interest-based on-line hangouts and unconferences, where young people who become engaged through these microworlds can meet peers and mentors to share ideas, form collaborations, and increase their programming and expressive capabilities. The PIs are collecting much data about the engagement and participation of youngsters, the development of their skills and understanding, and the development of their interests, and their analysis will contribute to deeper understanding of needed supports, pathways, and outcomes related to computational fluency.This project addresses the need to draw in and promote learning among those in populations not served well by current educational practices and important national priorities in workforce development, equity, and the need for a technologically fluent public. The project's tools and activities will provide alternative pathways into coding, increasing opportunities for young people in non-dominant communities to develop computational fluency. The focus on public libraries explores how to use public educational institutions most geared towards serving the technology needs and diverse interests of non-dominant communities in taking advantage of new online learning opportunities. The findings from this research will inform researchers and practitioners concerned with STEM-related learning, online educational resources, equity in education, and cyberlaw.

该网络学习整合和部署（INDP）项目将MIT媒体实验室，加利福尼亚大学欧文大学的数字媒体和学习中心以及哈佛大学的伯克曼互联网和社会中心汇集了一个跨学科的研究团队，以探索开发和使用新型的在线工具，活动和聚会，从而使更多的年轻人参与计算机的发展，尤其是年轻人，尤其是年轻人，这些工具尤其是年轻人的企业。该项目建立在NSF资助的Scratch编程语言和在线社区（http://scratch.mit.edu）的成功基础上，那里有超过150万年轻人根据他们的兴趣创建了互动故事，游戏，动画和模拟。所有项目的编码旨在为目前尚未轻松地吸引到技术和科学的话语和活动的人群中的年轻人为划痕提供新的途径。 PI正在设计和完善各种基于兴趣的微世界 - 介绍性的编程环境，这些环境是针对这些人群中年轻人的特定利益定制的，以提供更轻松，更具吸引力的入学点来开始编码，并且它们旨在开发指导方针，以开发指导方针，以设计足够简单的年轻人，以使足够的兴趣能够使年轻人足够多，以使其足够多的兴趣和富有创造力，并且可以使富有创造力的调动，并且可以使富有创造力的变化，并且可以使富有创造力的启发，并且可以促进富有创造力的，并且可以促进富有创造力的，并且可以使自己变得富有创造力。新的参与者培养好奇心和学习。此外，该团队正在探索如何在图书馆和其他空间中使用人员，低收入青年集会以支持对这些微世界的初步介绍和参与，并开发和精炼工具支持基于兴趣的基于兴趣的在线环聊和不满意的情况，在这些小组中，通过这些微型人来互动的年轻人可以与这些微世界参与其中，可以与同伴和共享的构想，并提出构想，并提高他们的协作，并提高他们的进度，并提高他们的计划，并提高他们的计划，并提高他们的计划，并提高他们的进度，并提高了他们的计划，并可以与他们共享，并提高了他们的计划，并能够与他们共享，并提高了他们的协作，并能够与他们共享，并提高了他们的协作，并能够与他们共享，并提高了他们的协作，并可以与他们共享。 PI正在收集有关年轻人的参与和参与，他们的技能和理解以及他们的利益发展的大量数据，他们的分析将有助于对所需的支持，途径和计算流畅性的更深入理解。与当前的教育习惯相关的是，这些项目的需求不得不在全国性的方面进行，而在这些人口中需要在全国性的方面进行努力，而在全国范围内则需要促进这些项目，这是在公平方面的努力和重要性的全国性的努力，并在公平方面努力，并在公平方面的发展方面的发展，并在公平方面进行公平率，并在公平方面的发展方面的工作，并且在公平方面的发展方面的工作范围和劳动力均应努力，并在公平方面的发展方面的工作范围和劳动力。该项目的工具和活动将为编码提供替代途径，这增加了非主导社区中的年轻人发展计算流利性的机会。对公共图书馆的关注探讨了如何使用最旨在满足非义务社区的技术需求和各种利益的公共教育机构，以利用新的在线学习机会。这项研究的发现将为与STEM相关的学习，在线教育资源，教育公平和网络劳劳有关的研究人员和从业人员提供信息。
