Fostering Student Collaboration Through Coding
In this edWebinar, Alfonso Mendoza explains how he introduced a comprehensive computational thinking and coding program with his students.
Learning Spaces: Designing for a Computer Science-Infused Classroom
In this webinar, join Bryan L. Miller, Educator Community Manager at Wonder Workshop, creators of Dash and Dot robots, along with Dr. Jennifer Williams and Fran Siracusa, Co-founders of Calliope Global. Together, their transformational work in redesigning classroom spaces, and knowledge in computer science and robotics implementations in schools provide an exciting framework and blueprint for bringing change to your school.
Going Beyond an Hour of Coding!
Computer Science Education Week (CSEdWeek) is an annual initiative that aims to inspire K-12 students to take interest in computer science. During this annual program, schools around the world host their own Hour of Code™. Organized by Code.org, Hour of Code™ is a one-hour basic introduction designed to celebrate and expand participation in computer science. This year, CSEdWeek took place from December 5th to 11th, and two of edWeb.net’s professional learning communities (PLC) presented webinars that highlighted the importance of coding and computer science in education.
edWeb.net and Wonder Workshop launch community for educators to help their students explore coding and robotics
edWeb.net and Wonder Workshop are hosting a professional learning community (PLC) on Coding & Robotics K-8 that will bring together thought leaders, technical experts, leading-edge educators, and industry leaders to provide teachers new information, resources, ideas and a place for discussion on how to teach coding and robotics, and how to integrate computer science and coding theory into core subjects, especially for students in grades K-8.
Beyond the Hour of Code: Implementation for All
Schools throughout the world participate in the Computer Science Education Week’s #HourofCode, which will take place in 2016 from December 5th to 9th. Unfortunately, many schools don’t move beyond that hour.
Age-Appropriate Computer Science for K-5 Students: Strategies and Resources for Your Classroom
In this webinar, Lori Fields, Associate Director of Engagement for Project Lead The Way (PLTW), and Rebecca Reed, PLTW Regional K-5 PLTW Launch Trainer, will share successful strategies and real-world classroom examples for introducing computer science at the elementary level.
The Bebras Challenge: Bringing STEM to Your Classroom
During this webinar we will show you how easy it is to use the Bebras Challenge in your curriculum and how it can be a step-up to other computational thinking/coding/informatics subjects.
