The theme of SIGCSE 2017 was "Inspire, Innovate, Improve!" aiming to inspire computing educators to innovate new teaching strategies, and to improve those strategies by engaging in the self-reflection and evaluation necessary to deliver the best possible learning outcomes for all. It attracted 1,500 researchers, educators, and others interested in improving computing education in K-12, lower- and upper-level undergraduate courses, open-source software, outreach, and education research. Nine China ACM SIGCSE members from Peking University (Ming Zhang, Wenxin Li, Kaigui Bian and Qinjian Zhang), National University of Defense Technology (Juan Chen), University of Science and Technology of China (Yu Zhang), Northeast Normal University (Yanling Li), Hebei University (Shenggang Xiao) and China Machine Press (Lifang Wen) attended the conference. The Chinese delegation attended "CC2020: A Vision on Computing Curricula" panel to discuss the development of a global, futuristic computing overview curricular report called ACM/IEEE Computing Curricular 2020. The delegation also visited the Microsoft headquarters, and had an informal discussion with some Peking University Alumni in Microsoft to explore the computer education and other related topics. |
