Elise Deitrick, PhD, Codio's Director of Curricula discusses the findings from the 2019 Survey of Computer Science Teaching.

Codio conducted a survey of computer science educators in US higher education institutions to better understand the curricular, grading, and administrative challenges they face.

Teachers increasingly need content they can customize for their context and are looking for technology to take on more of the grading burden.

Two key pain points for educators today—low student engagement and satisfaction—are related to curriculum challenges like high student attrition rates.

In short, while educators across the board are feeling the increasing student-to-teacher ratio that's often reported there is a disparity in resources between institutions.

There are many challenges around grading: inadequate TA resources, providing timely feedback to students, and development/grading environment compatibility.

In the latter half of 2019, Codio conducted a survey to better understand the state of computer science education in higher education institutions.

The 2018-2019 academic year saw a growing adoption trend of edTech platforms, as well as moves by textbook publishers to accommodate educators' needs
