MCCE support for Higher Education

Hear how Maryland higher education is building capacity for future teachers to be exposed to quality experiences in computational thinking and computer science for all. Come to the CS Summit in collaboration with Common Ground MD November 17-19, 2022
1. Special session for MCCE grantees Thursday November 17 from 2-4pm at the Ocean City Convention Center or join us online for a hybrid experience. Regstration coming 9/2/22
Apply for a grant to support your teacher education program:
- Apply for a mini-grant to invest time to learn more about the computer science and computational thinking that all K-12 teachers need to know and add it to what your preservice students learn. Mini grants are accepted on a rolling basis.
- Round 3 RFP was released on 8/31/22 and is due to mcce@usmd.edu by 9/30/22
