Program Information

CREATE at UC San Diego is excited to continue our offerings of CS Principles and CS Discoveries Summer Professional Learning Programs! These programs are highly supportive to prepare both experienced and novice educators with high-quality computer science instruction. The Summer of CS program includes:

• A five-day summer workshop, which will fully prepare educators to utilize Code.org curricula (CS Discoveries and CS Principles) and teacher support systems.

• Four one-day academic year workshops during the school year when teachers will reconvene for ongoing training and just-in-time support.

• Additional opportunities for online and face-to-face networking and collaboration with peers throughout the year.

Full scholarships are available for teachers in schools with high underserved student populations, thanks to generous support from Code.org!

Whether teachers are new to computer science (CS) or have experience teaching other CS courses, this program promotes growth by providing space for teachers to become comfortable with curricular materials, CS content, and pedagogy. Learn more about Code.org's Professional Learning training here.
