What is CAPE?

CAPE is a Framework designed to research, expose, and resolve barriers to equity in CS Education.

"C" stands for CAPACITY for CS Education.
"A" represents ACCESS to CS Education
"P" is about PARTICIPATION in CS Education
"E" focuses on EXPERIENCE of CS Education

Note that while the pieces of the CAPE triangle will be analyzed separately, they are interdependent pieces that can help us understand and improve student access to excellent computer science education.

Experience focuses on the outcomes (results) of participation in CS.

Participation measures the extent to which students are actively engaged in CS learning opportunities.
