Revising Programs to Align with Computer Science Curricula 2023 (CS2023)
Computer Science Curricula 2023 (CS2023) was released earlier in 2024 by the Joint Task Force of the ACM, IEEE-Computer Society, and AAAI. CS2023 reflects the decennial changes in computer science (CS) viewed from an educational perspective, since the release of the previous curricular guidelines, Computer Science Curricula 2013. CS2023 comprises curricular content and curricular practices: the former includes updates to the computer science knowledge areas and a competency model framework while curricular practices cover other aspects such as program design and delivery issues.
As CS2023 has proposed several changes to curricular content and emphases, this special session examines efforts that have already started to align computer science to reflect the CS2023 curricular guidelines. The presenters will discuss how their programs were reexamined in depth and changes are being proposed to better align with CS2023. The session is targeted toward educators, administrators, and professionals interested in understanding computer science curricular issues and aligning their programs for the future.
