چکیده
This mini-workshop will follow a “train-thetrainer” model. Experts will provide guidance and resources for college computing faculty who wish to organize workshops for high school computer science teachers. These workshops will enable the teachers to attract more and diverse students to their computer science classes, which will add to the college-bound population of students prepared for and interested in a computing major.
