The 2024-25 cohort of the STEP CS program is happening now. The students in the STEP CS program stay for a 5th quarter in their Masters in Education program to take classes in CS pedagogy and work on a CS teaching certification.
The Washington State chapter of the Computer Science Teachers' Association (CSTA Washington) is hosting an evening of activities, networking, and food to warmly welcome these new teachers to a community passionate about supporting equitable and inclusive computing education. This was formerly called the STEP CS lightning talk event - this year we're planning activity tables to facilitate conversation!
We are currently looking for 2-3 volunteer "activity table hosts" - people or organizations that have an activity that can be shared with rotating groups of people for 10 minutes at a time. Please email bricker@cs.washington.edu if you have an idea and are/or interested in hosting!
