Scaffolded Projects for the Social Good (SPSG)
Scaffolded Projects for the Social Good (SPSG) is an NSF-funded collaboration between Central Connecticut State University and Xavier University. The project goal is to develop resources to assist computer science faculty who wish to embed **community-based service-learning projects** into their curriculum. While not specific to our recommendations, we focus on projects and project partners (e.g. local non-profits) that illustrate **computing’s potential for positive social impact.** See the [SPSG Hub](https://spsg-hub.github.io/) for more information and other resources.

Computer Science Education Methods
This work focuses on researching what teaching methods are most effective for achieving student learning. My work in this area has looked at innovative teaching practices to address a number of aspects such as: using creativity as a tool to enhance learning; reducing the gender gap in college CS; how to make group projects better; methods to incorporate service learning into existing courses.
