Developing Competencies for the Future of Data and Computing: The Role of K-12

Recently completed

A committee-supported project or activity that has been completed and for which output dissemination has begun. Its committee has been disbanded and closeout procedures are underway.

The rapidly changing landscape of computing, information, and communications technologies have catapulted us into the computing revolution and era of big data. Currently, multiple, disconnected efforts in K-12 are attempting to address these new demands. However, there is a need to consider the similarity across computing-related disciplines to identify the core set of flexible, foundational competencies that will allow for adapting across changing workplace demands. This project aims to advance national conversations by identifying the competencies students need to navigate and succeed in the changing computational landscape and the role that K-12 education can play in developing these competencies.
