“I’m grateful for the opportunity to exchange insights with our international guests and learn about the advancements and challenges in their countries related to computer science and educational technology,” said Jared Amalong, Sacramento County Office of Education's Director of Computer Science and Digital Learning.    Recently, educators and education experts from all over the world participated in an International Visitor Leadership Program (IVLP) to explore technological innovations in education across the United States. During this program, they engaged with their American counterparts on best practices for integrating new technologies in classrooms and ways technology can create educational opportunities for disadvantaged, non-traditional, and rural students.   Read more about their meeting with the Sacramento County Office of Education (SCOE): https://lnkd.in/eybhV4FH Global Ties Sacramento | Meridian International Center | Iowa International Center | Global Ties Nebraska | Global Ties Arkansas | WorldOrlando | #IVLP

Global Ties Sacramento recently hosted 22 international education professionals as part of the U.S. Department of State's International Visitor Leadership Program (IVLP). Their program focused on topics such as online higher education, adult continued learning, and equitable access to technology disadvantaged communities. During their visit, the group met with the Sacramento County Office of Education to discuss current trends in education technology and its transformative impact on student learning, especially in rural areas. They also discussed SCOE's partnerships and training initiatives to integrate technology and Computer Science Standards into school curricula. A huge thank you to our partners at SCOE and Jared Amalong for their expertise and hospitality in hosting this insightful exchange We are proud to collaborate with Meridian International Center in facilitating these meaningful conversations and look forward to continuing to explore how innovative technologies can advance learning for all. #CitizenDiplomacy #IVLP #GlobalEducation #EdTech #GlobalTiesSacramento

Computer science is for everybody! This #CSEdWeek and beyond, we want to say thank you to all Computer Science educators and support your efforts to nurture a sense of belonging for all students. - One powerful way to connect students to computer science is to increase mentorship opportunities for educators, which research shows helps build community and deepen instructional knowledge and subject matter expertise. - Dr. Aleata Hubbard Cheuoua, Senior Research Scientist in WestEd's Learning and Technology team, helps lead MENTORS in CS, a year-long, equity-focused peer mentoring program which pairs experienced Computer Science teachers with teachers who are brand new to CS. - This project is a collaboration between Computer Science Teachers Association, WestEd, and three CSTA communities. 🤩 To learn more about #ComputerScience education and our efforts to scale mentorship opportunities, visit WestEd’s CS Ed website: https://bit.ly/3VyLBgS

Computer science education is flourishing like never before, reshaping the landscape of learning and opening endless opportunities for students worldwide.
