This paper reports on a study comparing current trends in CS at school, with a major focus on two countries, Germany and UK. A survey was carried out of a number of teaching professionals and experts from the UK and Germany with regard to the content and delivery of CS in school. An analysis of the quantitative data reveals a difference in foci in the two countries; putting this into the context of curricular developments we are able to offer interpretations of these trends and suggest ways in which curricula in CS at school should be moving forward.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{HofukuChoNishidaetal.2013, author = {Hofuku, Yayoi and Cho, Shinya and Nishida, Tomohiro and Kanemune, Susumu and Linck, Barbara and Kim, Seungyon and Park, Seongbin and Van{\´i}ček, Jiř{\´i} and Gujberov{\´a}, Monika and Tomcs{\´a}nyi, Peter and Dagiene, Valentina and Jevsikova, Tatjana and Schulte, Carsten and Sentance, Sue and Thota, Neena and G{\"u}lbahar, Yasemin and İlkhan, Mustafa and Kilis, Selcan and Arslan, Okan and Nakano, Yoshiaki and Izutsu, Katsunobu and Lessner, Daniel and Reffay, Christophe and Miled, Mahdi and Ortiz, Pascal and F{\´e}vrier, Lo{\"i}c and Grgurina, Nataša and Weise, Martin and Bellettini, Carlo and Lonati, Violetta and Malchiodi, Dario and Monga, Mattia and Morpurgo, Anna and Torelli, Mauro and Planteu, Lukas and Standl, Bernhard and Grossmann, Wilfried and Neuwirth, Erich and Benacka, Jan and Ragonis, Noa and Hodges, Steve and Berry, Carol and Kusterer, Peter}, title = {Informatics in schools : local proceedings of the 6th International Conference ISSEP 2013 ; selected papers ; Oldenburg, Germany, February 26-March 2, 2013}, editor = {Diethelm, Ira and Arndt, Jannik and D{\"u}nnebier, Malte and Syrbe, J{\"o}rn}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}tsverlag Potsdam}, address = {Potsdam}, isbn = {978-3-86956-222-3}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus-63688}, pages = {162}, year = {2013}, abstract = {The International Conference on Informatics in Schools: Situation, Evolution and Perspectives - ISSEP - is a forum for researchers and practitioners in the area of Informatics education, both in primary and secondary schools.
