Google’s Computer Science Teach Fellows Program
April 25, 2013 at 1:14 am 5 comments
At first, Google contacted us to find existing CS teachers to be part of their new teaching fellows program, but they’ve just opened it up to new grads as well.
Google is searching for talented (STEM) Science, Technology, Engineering or Math teachers to join a 2-year post-graduate program designed to grow leaders in computer science education. The program targets new graduates passionate about the future of computer science education. Applications are being accepted on a rolling basis for a two-year program that begins in June 2013. Applicants must be able to commit to the entire two years. As a part of the practicum, you will be working with thought leaders in education to learn the newest techniques and programs for computer science pedagogy, implementing programs with area schools and students, and creating your own innovative approaches to student learning. You can apply for the position and find more details about the program on this website. Please direct any questions you might have to TeachCS@google.com.
The role: Computer Science Teaching Fellows, New Grad 2013

• Bachelor’s degree in computer science or related field
• Some form of teaching or instruction experience (e.g., teaching assistant, tutor)

I was very interested in this, but without a teaching degree, I didn’t think it was possible to get involved! This is fantastic!

Looking on the Web site, it looks like the minimum qualifications are those with a teaching credential, not a Bachelor’s Degree.

The content above is copy-pasted from an announcement that got sent to Georgia Tech from Google. I suspect that they’ve opened up the pool a bit but haven’t yet updated the website.
