literacy in STEM education. In the
Federal Strategy for STEM Education,
computational literacy includes digital
literacy, cybersafety, cyberethics,
cybersecurity, data science, data
security, intellectual property (IP),
computational thinking, artificial
intelligence, quantum information
science, and digital platforms for
teaching and learning. Considering this
definition, please answer the questions
below:
20. What are the benefits when
integrating computational literacy
within a STEM curriculum and/or with
related standards, guidance, or
resources? Please describe any
challenges when integrating aspects of
computational literacy into your
instructional delivery.
21. What components, key concepts,
or topics should be included to integrate
computational literacy into STEM
education at all levels? Please explain
what they are and why they merit
special attention.
22. What are existing programs,
content, curriculum, or education and
training opportunities that inform
successful examples of building
computational literacy in STEM
education? Identify both Federal and
non-federally sponsored research and
programs.
23. What technologies and resources
do you currently use (e.g., apps,
learning management systems,
collaborative tools, STEM websites,
websites linked to curriculum)? Are
there others you would like to use, that
you do not have access to both for inperson and remote teaching and
learning?
Community Use and Implementation of
the Federal Stem Education Strategic
Plan
The Federal Government seeks
information on community utilization of
the Federal STEM Education Strategic
Plan.
24. Please describe how your
organization has used the Federal STEM
Education Strategic Plan. How does

II. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule
Change
In its filing with the Commission, the
Exchange included statements
concerning the purpose of and basis for
the proposed rule change and discussed
any comments it received on the
proposed rule change. The text of these
statements may be examined at the
places specified in Item IV below. The
Exchange has prepared summaries, set
forth in sections A, B, and C below, of
the most significant aspects of such
statements.
1. Purpose
[Release No. 34–90213; File No. SR–CBOE–
2020–094]
2 17
Cboe Exchange, Inc. (the ‘‘Exchange’’
or ‘‘Cboe Options’’) proposes to enhance
its drill-through protections and make
other clarifying changes. The text of the
proposed rule change is provided in
Exhibit 5.
The text of the proposed rule change
is also available on the Exchange’s
website (https://www.cboe.com/About
CBOE/CBOELegalRegulatory
Home.aspx), at the Exchange’s Office of
the Secretary, and at the Commission’s
Public Reference Room.

Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule
Change
BILLING CODE 8011–01–P
1 15
I. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Terms of Substance of
the Proposed Rule Change
The Exchange proposes to enhance its
drill-through protections for simple and
complex orders and make other
clarifying changes. Currently, pursuant
to Rule 5.34(a)(4) and (b)(6), the System
will execute a marketable buy (sell)
order or complex order,3 respectively,
up to a buffer amount above (below) the
limit of the Opening Collar or the
national best offer (‘‘NBO’’) (national
best bid (‘‘NBB’’)), as applicable, or the
synthetic national best offer (‘‘SNBO’’)
or synthetic national best bid (‘‘SNBB’’),
respectively (the ‘‘drill-through price’’).
The System enters any order (or
unexecuted portion), simple 4 or
complex, into the book or the complex
order book (‘‘COB’’), respectively, at the
drill-through price for a specified period
3 The System may also initiate a complex order
auction (‘‘COA’’) at the drill-through price for a
complex order that would otherwise initiate a COA.
4 Market orders or limit orders (or unexecuted
portions) with times-in-force of immediate-orcancel (‘‘IOC’’) or fill-or-kill (‘‘FOK’’) are cancelled
rather than be entered into the book. Limit orders
with times-in-force of day, good-til-cancelled
(‘‘GTC’’), or good-til-day (‘‘GTD) may enter the
book.

of time (determined by the Exchange).5
At the end of the time period, the
System cancels any portion of the order
not executed during that time period.
The Exchange proposes to permit
orders to rest in the book or COB, as
applicable, for multiple time periods
and at more aggressive displayed prices
during each time period.6 Specifically,
for a limit order (or unexecuted portion)
with a Time-in-Force of Day, GTC, or
GTD, or a complex order, the System
enters the order in the Book or COB
with a displayed 7 price equal to the
drill-through price (as discussed below,
if an order’s limit price is less aggressive
than the drill-through price, the order
will rest in the Book or COB, as
applicable, at its limit price and subject
to the User’s instructions, and the drillthrough mechanism as proposed to be
amended would no longer apply to the
order).8 The order (or unexecuted
portion) will rest in the book or COB, as
applicable, until the earliest to occur of
the order’s full execution and the end of
the duration of the number of time
periods.9 Following the end of each
period prior to the final period, the
System adds (if a buy order) or subtracts
(if a sell order) one buffer amount to the
drill-through price displayed during the
immediately preceding period (each
new price becomes the ‘‘drill-through
5 The current time period is two seconds, and the
current default amounts are available in the
technical specifications available at https://
cdn.cboe.com/resources/membership/US_Options_
BOE_Specification.pdf. Upon implementation of
the proposed rule change, the Exchange will likely
reduce the length of the time period and maintain
the same buffer amounts.
6 The Exchange will announce to Trading Permit
Holders the buffer amount, the number of time
periods, and the length of the time periods in
accordance with Rule 1.5. The Exchange notes that
each time period will be the same length (as
designated by the Exchange), and the buffer amount
applied for each time period will be the same.
7 Currently, the drill-through price is the price of
orders and complex orders in the book or COB,
respectively. The proposed rule change clarifies
that the drill-through price is displayed, which is
consistent with current functionality.
8 See proposed Rule 5.34(a)(4)(C) and (b)(6)(B).
9 The Exchange will determine on a class-by-class
basis the number of time periods, which may not
exceed five, and the length of the time period,
which may not exceed three seconds. See proposed
Rule 5.34(a)(4)(C)(i) and (b)(6)(B)(i). While the
current rule does not permit the Exchange to
determine different time periods for different
classes, the proposed rule change adds class
flexibility so that the Exchange may determine
different time periods for different classes, which
may exhibit different trading characteristics and
have different market models. This is consistent
with flexibility the current Rules provide the
Exchange with respect to other portions of the drillthrough protection, such as the buffer amount for
simple orders (the proposed rule change also adds
this flexibility for determining the buffer amount for
complex orders). See Rule 5.34(a)(4)(C) [sic] and
(b)(6)(A) [sic].
