"Integrating Computation in Science Across Michigan" (ICSAM), is a professional development series where teachers learn to write computer programs and teach computational modeling in their high school science classes (primarily physics). The professional development series consists of a five-day workshop held in the summer at Michigan State University's campus. This workshop emphasizes ways to provide equitable learning opportunities for students when engaging in computational modeling activities. Participating teachers will engage with a growing cohort of their peers (50+ participants over the past two years) that have successfully integrated computation into their courses. This informational presentation will preview computational learning activities, pedagogical strategies, and professional development opportunities offered through the ICSAM program at Michigan State University.
