Computing Community Consortium Blog

The goal of the Computing Community Consortium (CCC) is to catalyze the computing research community to debate longer range, more audacious research challenges; to build consensus around research visions; to evolve the most promising visions toward clearly defined initiatives; and to work with the funding organizations to move challenges and visions toward funding initiatives. The purpose of this blog is to provide a more immediate, online mechanism for dissemination of visioning concepts and community discussion/debate about them.

The AI Tsunami: Reshaping Computer Science Education

July 8th, 2025 / in AI, CCC, CS education, NSF / by Catherine Gill

A recent New York Times article by Steve Lohr, “How Do You Teach Computer Science in the A.I. Era?”, powerfully highlights the profound impact of generative AI on computer science education. As an organization dedicated to catalyzing and enabling the computing research community, CCC recognizes the urgency and criticality of this transformation. The article outlines the current landscape, noting that universities nationwide are grappling with how to adapt their curricula. The traditional emphasis on mastering programming languages is indeed being challenged by AI assistants that can generate increasingly sophisticated code. Jeannette Wing, Columbia University professor and former Computing Research Association (CRA) board member, aptly captures the current sentiment in the […]
