Teaching is helping people acquire knowledge, skills, attitudes, and beliefs. Research is discovering truth and inventing solutions. Teachers teach computing, whereas Computing Education researchers discover what is true about the teaching and learning of computing, and invent new techniques for teaching and assessing it (some pedagogical, some computational).

In CER, the term "computing" is broadly defined: it's not just about programming, or even just about computer science, but also about all of the phenomena surrounding computing (including privacy, security, information ethics, software engineering, etc.). This means that computing education and computing education research can and does cover far more than just learning to code.

We are particularly interested in active learning, peer learning, computer-aided learning, open educational resources, and assessment.

On Friday, Oct. 25, 2019 from 2:00 - 7:00 PM, the CS Department, in collaboration with the AI Institute, will hold the CS Day (previously Research Day) event at UGA Memorial Hall.

Prof. Doshi is collaborating on a new 3-year NSF grant with faculty at Oberlin College and UNL-Lincoln on scalable and decentralized planning in open multi-agent systems. Such systems are characterized by agents entering and leaving the system, as well as tasks that are transient.

Congratulations to Dr. Michael E. Cotterell for being selected for participation in the 2019-2020 Teaching Academy Fellows Program—an early-career mentoring program at the University of Georgia.

A National Science Foundation (NSF) funded research project being conducted in the Data Intensive Pervasive Systems Lab has been recently featured on Science Nation. This research project aims to harness Internet of Things (IoT) and data analytics for accurately mapping and analyzing urban heat islands. This project is being funded by the NSF under the smart and connected communities program.

Congratulations to Dr. Kyu Hyung Lee for receiving a 3-year NSF grant for the proposal titled: "OAC Core: Small: Collaborative Research: Data Provenance Infrastructure towards Robust and Reliable Data Sharing and Analytics, 3-years, PI Kyu Hyung Lee."

Congratulations to Dr. Ramviyas Nattanmai Parasuraman and Dr. Prashant Doshi for being funded a project titled “From Toys to Robots for Active Learning in Robotics and AI Education” under the Learning Technologies Grant (LTG) program of UGA. The purpose of the LTG program is to enhance teaching and learning at the University of Georgia through the innovative use of technology.
