This paper brings together the history of Computer Science Education in Ireland. It aims to plot Ireland's road-map leading to the implementation of formal Computer Science Education in schools. This road map starts with the first notions of introducing secondary school children to computing in the 1970s up to the roll out of a nationwide Computer...
This poster describes the early development of a K-12 outreach model, named CSinc, to promote CS in Ireland. It has already been piloted with over 4500 K-12 students in its first year. At the heart of the model is a two-hour camp that incorporates an on-site school delivery. Schools from all over Ireland self-selected to participate, including male...

... Traditional computer science education has long been centered on manual coding and algorithm design [22]. It emphasizes the need for students to understand the intricacies of programming languages, the efficiency of algorithms, and the design of complex software systems [13,14]. AI based code generation techniques, while increasingly prevalent in the industry, often receive less attention in the educational context. ...
