Abstract

This research paper provides findings from the National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded project titled Let's Talk Code. Let's Talk Code aims to broaden the computer science participation of Indigenous serving teachers and their students in the Northern Arizona and New Mexico region of the United States. The Computer Science (CS) for All Research-Practice Partnership (RPP) of Let's Talk Code provided professional learning workshops for non-computer science Indigenous serving teachers. The experiences of a subset of teachers (3 pseudo-named Mister, Master, and Mayor) who had participated in 40 hours of professional development are examined. Further, the experiences of students (NMister students = 37, NMaster students = 6 NMayor students = 37) who participated in computing activities with the trained teachers are explored.
