#CSEdWeek
Too often, CS education teaches only the technical. In this book, we reimagine the technical in social terms, teaching both CS content knowledge and pedagogical content knowledge that teachers need to help youth understand how computing is shaping society, often in harmful ways.
Thank you to my wonderful coauthors, @beitlers, Brett Wortzman, Matt Davidson, @Alannnah, @mara__kr, and @Stefania_druga, to everyone who gave early feedback, and to @NSF for funding the work.
