Wolfram's vision and deep commitment to education is now fundamentally reshaping the science and technology curriculum for Cambodian youth, including future leaders in science and technology. With Wolfram's support and access to the world's largest free network of Wolfram’s technical and computational websites, Cambodian educators and students are now developing each month over 150 resources in computational thinking, applied to an integrated curriculum for grades 7-12.

The Wolfram initiative in Cambodia is between Dr. Chan Roath, Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport (MoEYS), the teacher-training educators from the National Institute of Education, multi-grade and subject teachers from six New Generation Schools, and multi-grade students from both the Ministry of Education, Youth, and Sport’s New Generation School (MoEYS NGS), and the Cambodia Children’s Fund’s Neeson Cripps Academy (CCF). Our current projects include the following:

• Create Computational Thinking Curriculum lesson plans for grades 7-12 at CCF, and implement a process to more efficiently create and share resource, especially from CCF.

• Support innovative Wolfram student projects, support national / international student competition submissions for grades 7-12, and facilitate student connections with mentors.

• Complete the first draft of the National MoEYS Cambodian STEM Action Plan, which will include Khmer lesson plans with Wolfram resources

• Support Dr. Chan Roath’s National Computational Thinking Educator Workshops in 25 Provinces to increase access and use of the Wolfram-based MoEYS Computational Thinking resources, and to provide training to code with Wolfram Software.
