CURRENT STATUS AND FUTURE GOALS OF THE GLOBAL CC2020 PROJECT: INTERACTIVE TUTORIAL

Heikki Topi, Department of Computer Information Systems, Bentley University

Abstract

The purpose of this tutorial is to give the conference participants an update on the current status and future goals of the global CC2020 project. It will also provide the SIGED community with an opportunity to participate in a discussion that gives the CC2020 steering committee qualitative feedback, contributing directly to the outcomes of the project. The tutorial will actively solicit participant contributions and serve as an important mechanism for interaction between the project and the SIGED community. The topics will include a) general introduction to the project and its goals; b) use of competencies as common currency for curriculum analysis; c) use of visualization to compare computing degree programs; and d) lessons for the information systems discipline from the CC2020 project.
