<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">The concept of sustainability has emerged as an area of interest in a number of fields in computing as well as being a part of the ACM CS2013 Core Curriculum as a Core Tier 1 topic. However, in a crowded computing
curriculum, computing students have little chance to learn about the concepts needed to analyse sustainability beyond the technical scope of systems they develop in class.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">The Computing, Sustainability, and Education workshop take a three-prong approach to tackling this challenge of lack of uptake in Sustainability Education within various areas of Computing, by:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">* Fostering community growth that researchers on pedagogical approaches, methods, techniques, tools, and processes for teaching sustainability in the computing curricula;<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">* Expanding on the efforts of the pioneering practitioners that include (single, multi- and/or interdisciplinary) modules or courses to integrate sustainability into computing education; and<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">* Providing a forum where the participants will collaboratively discuss and create curricula for ICT4S and SE4S education (including a list of tentative core subjects/issues and suggested core literature).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">The primary aim of the workshop is to establish a forum for educators, researchers, and practitioners interested in the design and development of a curriculum for sustainablity education and computing. With
this participatory workshop, we aim to gather participants from academia as well as from industry who are interested in developing ICT4S education and discuss core subject areas, concrete examples and seminal literature that we use and/or that “should” be
included in such courses. This workshop will thus be an interdisciplinary effort to further ICT for sustainability and the workshop is organised by persons who lead these developments and who all have experiences of planning and teaching sustainability courses
for computer science students. This workshop takes place in two separate parts (part A and B) and you can register for either one or both.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
