Computational Thinking Community of Practice by IsabelRosie Linacre https://padlet.com/irl2106/CT_COP Thoughts on today's session en-us 2021-06-10 14:17:49 UTC 2021-06-15 19:21:07 UTC hello@padlet.com Takeaway: the differences between in-service programs and pre-service programs is very revealing - and has implications for the future of CT. I think we need to find ways to bridge those differences. We have some ideas! https://padlet.com/irl2106/CT_COP/wish/1608331675 2021-06-15 19:17:11 UTC https://padlet.com/irl2106/CT_COP/wish/1608331675 Takeaways From Today's Session anegron19 https://padlet.com/irl2106/CT_COP/wish/1608331745 I really enjoyed our conversation around the varied rationales for CT and the ones presented in the findings seem to resonate with our group and the schools we work with. I feel like maybe its more which we give more of a focus on but each definitely needs to be in the conversation when discussing the importance of CT in the classroom

If folks want to follow up, let's connect. pkim@kipp.org]]> 2021-06-15 19:17:29 UTC https://padlet.com/irl2106/CT_COP/wish/1608332176 We still have a lot to learn. https://padlet.com/irl2106/CT_COP/wish/1608332478 2021-06-15 19:17:39 UTC https://padlet.com/irl2106/CT_COP/wish/1608332478 I found the comfort level piece interesting but not surprising at all. A first year teacher in their own area isn't super comfortable so why should a teacher with much less training. This is only the beginning https://padlet.com/irl2106/CT_COP/wish/1608332609 2021-06-15 19:17:44 UTC https://padlet.com/irl2106/CT_COP/wish/1608332609 Takeaway https://padlet.com/irl2106/CT_COP/wish/1608332827 Despite there being variance in the structure of CT project models they seem to share similar key elements that support increasing teacher confidence to integrate CT in their classrooms/curriculum.]]> 2021-06-15 19:17:53 UTC https://padlet.com/irl2106/CT_COP/wish/1608332827 Covid probably robbed us of some important data https://padlet.com/irl2106/CT_COP/wish/1608332880 2021-06-15 19:17:55 UTC https://padlet.com/irl2106/CT_COP/wish/1608332880 We are doing well with helping teachers see CT as a way for students to problem solve, but we can do better with helping teachers see it as something to use to help students create. https://padlet.com/irl2106/CT_COP/wish/1608332990 (from Michael Zamansky)]]> 2021-06-15 19:18:00 UTC https://padlet.com/irl2106/CT_COP/wish/1608332990 I think varied models are important and actually necessary - we want schools to adapt how they integrate CT so that it aligns with the different resources that they have.

How much did that have to do with the impact?]]> 2021-06-15 19:19:29 UTC https://padlet.com/irl2106/CT_COP/wish/1608335418 They why and the how https://padlet.com/irl2106/CT_COP/wish/1608336288
Maybe we need more clarity of the goal (why?) 
to better defined how to teach CT?]]> 2021-06-15 19:20:04 UTC https://padlet.com/irl2106/CT_COP/wish/1608336288
