CSinPA Book Event

The CSinPA team at PaTTAN is hosting CS Book events in collaboration with Pennsylvania’s four CSTA chapters in multiple regions across the state during June, 2024.

This special opportunity will engage educators in exploring a curated collection of CS-related books developed by the PaTTAN team. Participants will discuss ideas for leveraging CS books to grow CS capacity and support students' CS learning.

This event will also provide networking opportunities with other educators and local CSTA Chapter leaders to learn CS-related resources, materials and professional learning opportunities.

The event is open to all educators and leaders in PA: Pre-K -12 educators, administrators, counselors, school librarians, special education teachers, representatives from family engagement groups (e.g., PTO), literacy coaches, and others.
