Computer science education often focuses on discrete skills, like coding syntax, algorithms, or digital systems, without a unifying narrative to help students see why it all matters. This session introduces an innovative approach inspired by the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) storyline model, which reframes computer science units around real-world phenomena like data breaches, ransomware, and AI bias. Participants will explore how NGSS-style storylines can make abstract CS concepts more coherent, inquiry-driven, and emotionally engaging. Using cybersecurity as an example...
