The CxD Approach

We will explore primary learning objectives for a computer science course and an achievable student profile that exhibits the attributes of a life-long learner and doer. We will consider the three threads of an innovator's work and how we can use the classroom as a bridge for students to participate in the modern world . We will review basic industry practices to manage project work and how to replicate them in an appropriate way for classrooms.

Prompts for Discussion (on Slack #cohort*-module1-foundations)

  • What do you see as primary roadblocks and opportunities for students to engage CS?

  • How might you have students track project work? What methods have you used in the past?

  • What code tutorial resource might you use? (e.g. Codecademy, Khan Academy, W3Schools, Code.org, CodeHS)
