Iterative Development of an Evaluative Checklist for Integrated Computer Science Lessons in K-8

This poster introduces a curricular checklist designed to evaluate the quality of integrated computer science (CS) instructional materials, with a focus on ensuring equity and inclusivity in K-8 education. Early exposure to CS, especially through integrated learning in elementary and middle grades, can improve student outcomes and increase interest in CS, particularly among students from marginalized communities. However, implementing integrated CS lessons continues to face barriers such as the lack of high-quality instructional resources and limited guidance for educators.
