I'm thankful for the ability to make mistakes and learn from them!
This is the mindset I want all of my students to have!
Today I talked with one of my classes about how they learn. We also drew some conclusions about how video games teach you the mechanics of the game and that makes you want to continue playing them. How can we take these same concepts and apply them to classes in school?
The power of play!
Great start on our way to 💯
BIG news: More than 57% of U.S. high schools offer computer science — the biggest increase in 5 years! While there's much to celebrate in the K-12 computer science movement, access gaps persist, particularly at small schools. Learn more at advocacy.code.org/stateofcs. #StateOfCS2023
Patience goes a long way. It is human nature to get upset when students act out. But the next time a student tries to push you over the edge, stop and think for a minute why this might be happening. Forge relationships with students, don't push them away.
My computer science meme wall at school. Kids give me new ones each year!
This is the way!
Looks like it will be a full house for @pgliljedahl’s session on increasing student responsibility in a thinking classroom. #NCTMDC23
The creativity and design that makes people go back to play video games over and over can be utilized in the classroom to get kids more involved in their learning. Make classes exciting, challenging, and give the kids a reason to learn and they will.
I've been teaching computer science classes for 18 years! I'm lucky to teach courses such as AP Computer Science A, AP Computer Science Principles, Arduino, Robotics, 3D Modeling, Web Design, and my personal favorite Game Design! What STEM courses does your school have?
