Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

·Pedagogical issues in incorporating HPC and/or PDC in undergraduate and 
graduate education, especially in core courses but also in domain courses.

·Novel ways of teaching HPC and PDC topics.

·Aspects of teaching HPC/PDC related to Data Science, including early 
experience with DS degree programs.

·Educational approaches to teaching HPC/PDC that provide evidence of 
best practices.
