WINforCS is the Washington Integration Network for Computer Science. We are a group of educators from across the state who come together three times a year with the following goals:
![WINforCS-Icons-Playlist01](https://winforcs.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/WINforCS-Icons-Playlist01.png)
Create leaders who can help to promote equitable integration of computer science (CS) and computational thinking (CT) concepts and activities, especially for underserved populations.
![WINforCS-Icons-Playlist02](https://winforcs.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/WINforCS-Icons-Playlist02.png)
Keep educators apprised of the big picture of computer science education in Washington State.
![WINforCS-Icons-Playlist03](https://winforcs.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/WINforCS-Icons-Playlist03.png)
Help educators understand how and why to use integrated CS/CT activities to enhance all curriculum areas, teach 21st century skills, and expose students to essential concepts.
![WINforCS-Icons-Playlist04](https://winforcs.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/WINforCS-Icons-Playlist04.png)
Create a professional learning community that shares fun and exciting activities, resources, and tools for use in classrooms.
Join us again for WINforCS!
Educators from all roles are welcome – you don’t have to be a CS teacher, just interested in integrating computer science and computational thinking into your practice. Each session includes state updates about computer science education, as well as a “choose your own adventure” professional learning opportunity and a chance to meet with educators from your region.
Previous offerings included…
- CS & PBL integration
- Culturally Responsive STEM Learning: How and Why
