Code.Org: K-5 Curriculum Training Site – NC

Welcome to the

North Carolina Code.Org
Curriculum Training Site

---

Objective:

Participants will use Code.org to learn code and identify strategies for aligning computer science skills (critical thinking, logic, persistence, creativity, problem solving) in the K-5 curriculum.

Course Design and the Instructor Goals:

Computer science and computational thinking skills will be addressed through hands-on “unplugged” and online activities, including computer programming and coding. Skills of a computer scientist through the computational thinking practices of creativity, collaboration, communication, persistence and problem solving will be emphasized. Computer science themes of algorithms, data, abstraction, editing, computing practice and programming, computers and communication devices, and community, global and ethical impacts.  Participants will participate in Teacher/Learner/Observer (TLO) style activities, coding, and creating resources for classroom practice.
