Computer Science for Racial Justice (CS4RJ)
The Computer Science for Racial Justice (CS4RJ) project aims to support just and sustainable engagements in CS learning alongside Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) communities. It seeks to support historical reauthoring, a version of computational “remixing” that encourages students to engage with the ethical and political dimensions of computing.

DataSketch
The DataSketch project explored how middle school students think and learn about data visualization. It involved two interrelated strands of work: (1) research on grade 5-8 students’ existing competencies and practices related to data visualization; and (2) the development and study of a tablet based toolkit for students to create digital ink programmable visualizations that respond to archival or live data stream input.
