look for ways that technology enhances what
the public enjoys,” says Young.
Keith Zielen, mathematics and computer
science instructor, is one of 40 teachers in
our nation to pilot a new College Board AP
program called Computer Science Principles
using the mobile CSP curriculum. His
fellowship enabled him to lead students on
the odyssey of creating a digital movie about
their experiences with this unique course.
They entered that digital video into the I5
competition where they were named finalists.
The video can be viewed at youtube.com/
watch?v=1bx5VG0wrxY. “Teaching the
course has been fun and a journey in learning
for myself as much as the class,” says Zielen.
“I hope our story inspires others to give
Computer Science another look.”
Research Fellowship is an honor bestowed
on teachers nominated by their principals.
Each project seeks to elevate the school,
community and world through meaningful
projects.
