Some of these workshops are funded by NSF grants. For those specific workshops, there is no registration or lodging fee. The workshops in RI and GA will focus on teaching with Alice and Guzdial and Ericson's Media Computation in a single CS1 or APCS course. The other workshops focus only on Alice.

My site was nominated for Best Education Blog!
