Special Theme: Beyond programming
This year we particularly invite submissions that present work regarding CS education in primary and secondary education that is not focused on programming. Programming is a central part of many CS curricula around the world. However, CS is more than programming and our curricula typically also reflect this. Relevant work may deal with different ways of integrating programming into a broader CS curriculum, or simply with other interesting facets of CS education in schools.
Workshop Format
WiPSCE is a single track workshop with keynotes, research and practice presentations, panels, and discussion sessions. The workshop language is English. The workshop is known for its moderate size and lively discussions.
