Computing Impacts and Ethics in CSTA Standards: A Synthesis of Expert Perspectives
In response to the standards writers’ desire for concrete feedback, the Amplifying Social Impacts of Computing Standards (ASICS) project engaged 16 experts whose work is at the forefront of impacts and ethics in CS education. Their recommendations, synthesized by the ASICS team, are offered as a guide to how the standards might be revised and improved in ways that these experts believed would not only meet our collective moment, but maintain relevance and applicability into the next decade.
