Case study Β· DEVCON for Educators Β· with CSTA and DEVCON Kids

Training the teachers who teach computer science

Every classroom we can’t reach still has a teacher. With CSTA and DEVCON Kids, DEVCON for Educators trains teachers and adult volunteers to teach computer science and AI, so the learning keeps going long after an event ends.
