All Massachusetts students should have a foundation in computing, not just computer literacy.
Massachusetts should be a national leader in computing education.
Computing education needs to be offered at the key middle school level to ensure female and underrepresented minority students are engaged at an early age.
All computing education must be standards-based.Students should get math or science HS graduation credit for computing courses.
A continuum of pathways should be available to students from middle school through high school to provide deep educational opportunities for computing.
A balance of vocational and college-prep course offerings should be available.
Infusing computing into math, science and other areas is important but is a long term process that does not have the impact we want; it is not the solution.
