Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) proposes Pathways for Advancing Computing Education (PACE2), a researcher-practitioner partnership (RPP) facilitated by the MIT Teaching Systems Lab (TSL), CSforMA, and consortium of 12 diverse school districts across the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. PACE2 participants share the common goal of broadening participation in computing for underserved groups in computer science (CS) in Massachusetts: females, Black and Hispanic/Latinx, low-income students, English learner students and students with disabilities. The long-term objectives of PACE2 districts are to address the four dimensions of the CAPE framework for equitable CS education: improving Capacity for CS education, expanding Access to CS courses, broadening Participation of underrepresented groups, and ensuring equitable experiences in CS courses. The ongoing community of practice brings together multi-stakeholder teams within each district including CS teachers, department heads, guidance counselors, and school and district leaders to ensure coherent, district-wide approaches to broadening participation and improving experiences in computer science. Strengthening CS education across the Commonwealth of Massachusetts will require creating a diverse set of pathways for different districts—with different curriculum structures, demographic compositions, and per pupil expenditures—to make progress towards helping all students meet and exceed the Massachusetts Digital Literacy and Computer Science standards and close the many opportunity gaps related to CS education that exist throughout the state. PACE members will participate in a yearlong sequence of workshops, including best-in-class programs developed by prior NSF-funded work like the Strategic CSforALL Research and Implementation Planning Tool (SCRIPT) and Counselors for Computing (C4C), along with new programming. These newly developed professional learning experiences focus on improving equity teaching practices through digital clinical simulations and developing monitoring tools and programs for tracking progress towards equity of opportunity and outcomes in CS education across the district. The project will iteratively improve on these initial learning experiences for a second year and map out pathways for expanding the number of districts with PACE fellows. The project will set the stage for a larger RPP that engages other stakeholders engaged in CS education in Massachusetts.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

马萨诸塞州理工学院（MIT）提出了推进计算教育的途径（PACE2），这是由麻省理工学院教学系统实验室（TSL），CSFORMA，CSFORMA和联盟组成的研究人员 - 抛弃者合作伙伴关系（RPP），以及马萨诸塞州联邦的12个潜水员学区的联盟。 PACE2参与者分享了扩大马萨诸塞州计算机科学（CS）计算小组计算的共同目标：女性，黑人和西班牙裔/拉丁裔，低收入学生，英语学习者，英语学习者和残疾学生。 PACE2地区的长期目标是解决公平CS教育的CAPE框架的四个方面：提高CS教育的能力，扩大进入CS课程的访问，扩大代表性不足的群体的参与以及确保在CS课程中的公平经验。正在进行的实践社区使马萨诸塞州联邦的CS教育加强了CS教育，将需要为不同地区（以及不同的当前结构，人口组成以及每个学生支出）创造一套潜水员的途径，以帮助所有学生满足所有学生，并超越马萨诸塞州的数字科学和计算机科学标准，并关闭与COMPS COMPACT COMPASS COMPART COMPACS COMPART COMPAR IMASS COMPART COMPART COMPLACTS COMPLACT。 PACE成员将参加为期一年的研讨会，包括由NSF资助的工作提供的一流课程，例如战略CSFORALL研究和实施计划工具（脚本）和计算顾问（C4C）以及新的编程。这些新开发的专业学习经验着重于通过数字临床模拟改善股权教学实践，并开发监测工具和计划，以跟踪整个地区CS教育的机会和成果的进步。该项目将在第二年的这些初始学习经历上迭代改善，并绘制出扩大速度研究员地区数量的途径。该项目将为一个更大的RPP奠定舞台，该奖项与其他从事CS教育的利益相关者在马萨诸塞州进行。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并使用基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的影响审查标准，认为通过评估而被认为是宝贵的支持。
