Computer science education research awards (2018 - 2022)

Google’s Computer Science Education Research (CS-ER) Awards provided funding for one-year proof-of-concept pilots. In addition to receiving funding, awardees were part of a year-long cohort experience designed to create opportunities for researchers to share expertise and tools and provide mentoring to new researchers.
