Although U.S. schools have made progress with computer science education, new research shows that fewer than half of schools are teaching computer science.
2020 State of Computer Science Education: Illuminating Disparities, co-authored by Code.org, the Computer Science Teachers Association (CSTA), and the Expanding Computing Education Pathways (ECEP) Alliance, offers a comprehensive look at K-12 computer science education progress across the U.S.
The report combines state-level policy with course access and participation data in a way that assesses the progress of the computer science community through a lens of equity and diversity.
