Introduction

Computing is a ubiquitous part of modern life. However, it is also clear that large groups of our population are not yet included in computing research, education, and jobs. As a part of Rutgers-TCNJ collaborative research Project NUCLEUM, this annual workshop series tries to address this problem by using the research project outcome to provide educational experiences and tools that span various levels of the future computer science workforce pipeline. We aim to accomplish the following list of goals:
  • Student Workshop: High school students will be exposed to machine learning through one-day workshops at The College of New Jersey (TCNJ)
  • Teacher Workshop: K-12 teachers will gain professional development opportunity to learn how they can incorporate AI concepts in their classrooms
