A key goal of this program is to provide all U.S. students with the opportunity to participate in computer science (CS) and computational thinking (CT) education in their schools at the preK-12 levels. CT refers to the thought processes involved in formulating problems and their solutions in such a way that the solutions can be effectively carried out by an information-processing agent (usually a computer).

The need for systemic, student-centered change could not be greater at this moment. The pandemic’s effect on education systems revealed a need to better prepare for uncertainty, meet diverse student needs, and marshal strong leadership on behalf of student interests. Durable systems change is notoriously hard, and long-standing policies and lack of effective change management strategies have been the primary barriers to past efforts at sustained systemic innovation.

Catalyze Challenge aims to reimagine the connections between K-12 education, higher education, and careers for young people — helping them to build their identities, self-efficacy, and career readiness. Grants will be awarded to novel approaches and exploratory work aligned with one of two themes to advance career-connected learning.
