At its April meeting Thursday, the Wyoming State Board of Education moved to promote the rules which incorporate the proposed new Computer Science Standards at the elementary level.
The Wyoming Department of Education, at the request of the board of education, reconvened its Computer Science Standards Review Committee to revise standards at the elementary grades. While the Computer Science Committee maintained all of the content standards, they reduced the number of “required” standards from nine at the K-2 level to four.
In a related presentation, the state department of education’s Supervisor of Student/Teacher Resource Team, Dr. Laurel Ballard, said the Department has received a grant from Microsoft’s “TechSpark Initiative” to provide computer science implementation and training to individual school districts who apply for grant consideration.
