摘要
This ITiCSE Working Group (WG) has two goals: first, to increase awareness of computing education research in the African countries, and second, to create and strengthen connections between computing education researchers in African countries and those in the larger computing education research community. To achieve these goals, the WG will focus on two tasks: writing a literature review of publications related to computing education in African countries and building a set of contextually relevant materials - introductory programming examples and assignments at university level - designed for students in African countries. The final report will include an overview of past computing education research related to Africa, a current project (the new course materials), and suggestions for future work.
