# Computing by Design 2021
Preparing Innovators in Computing
{% hint style="info" %}
### Looking for this year's workshop, 2022?
👉 Bookmark [**Computing by Design 2022**](https://docs.launchboard.app/cxd/cxd-2022-summer-workshops/) as we update the details.
{% endhint %}
## Welcome to Our 2021 Online Summer Workshop Series!
**Customize a path that aligns with your needs in teaching computer science**. Computing by Design (CxD) offers an array of professional development opportunities to prepare you for teaching your first CS class, enhancing your current curriculum, or simply incorporating CS principles in another subject. Sign up for one or any combination of workshops.
**Enjoy your summer activities while preparing for computer science.** All workshops are offered online and are designed to take approximately 2 hours each day (\*), providing you flexibility in your summer schedule. You will have constant access to the online material and access to an online Slack community of instructors and fellow teachers. Each week there will be two one-hour Zoom meetings for guest interviews, questions and sharing workshop progress.\
*\* The PBLWorks workshop is an exception: It is 3 full days online (synchronous).*
### Recommended Workshop Pathways :point\_down:
While you can customize which workshops you take, here are a few recommendations to consider if you are unsure where to start. The workshops support grades 6 -12 instruction, except for a [few of the programming workshops, which are more appropriate for grades 10-12](https://docs.idew.org/cxd2021/programming-workshops/choose-programming-workshop#choose-from-six-programming-workshops).

# Agent Instructions

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://docs.launchboard.app/cxd/cxd-2021-summer-workshop-series/master.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
