And now, more than ever, people are expected to have high competency in CS. I want to help prepare our students to have the skills to be able to thrive in our digital world.  https://padlet.com/honomichl/pfdkhdcnuy9c/wish/129286789 2016-10-08 15:28:12 UTC https://padlet.com/honomichl/pfdkhdcnuy9c/wish/129286789 https://padlet.com/honomichl/pfdkhdcnuy9c/wish/129393720 Computer science is necessary in classrooms of today because technology plays such a huge part in our world, and will even more so in the futures of our students.]]> 2016-10-10 02:50:20 UTC https://padlet.com/honomichl/pfdkhdcnuy9c/wish/129393720 Students come to school to expand their knowledge.  Educators need to assist individual growth in all areas, including CS.  Often teachers find themselves lacking in comparison to what their students know about technology.  Yet, this cannot stop them from providing opportunities for learning. https://padlet.com/honomichl/pfdkhdcnuy9c/wish/129405015 2016-10-10 04:44:09 UTC https://padlet.com/honomichl/pfdkhdcnuy9c/wish/129405015 Technology is growing at a pace that is hard to keep up with as an educator.  I agree, teachers do find themselves many times lacking the skills compared to what students know and understand when they enter the classroom.  Teachers need to find a balance of what they are comfortable with in technology  tammy_selgestad https://padlet.com/honomichl/pfdkhdcnuy9c/wish/129637297 2016-10-10 20:51:53 UTC https://padlet.com/honomichl/pfdkhdcnuy9c/wish/129637297 https://padlet.com/honomichl/pfdkhdcnuy9c/wish/129645523 Computer science is so important to our kids' future.

Teachers need to find a balance in what they are comfortable teaching and what the kids already know. We are preparing kids for jobs that don't even exist, yet. That is kind of scary! ]]> 2016-10-10 21:54:11 UTC https://padlet.com/honomichl/pfdkhdcnuy9c/wish/129645688 I think it used to be viewed that students only needed computer knowledge to work in professional jobs but today ALL jobs require technology.  Computer Science is more about thinking, inquiry, research - skills needed for success in the classroom and in their everyday life. ardana_bruns https://padlet.com/honomichl/pfdkhdcnuy9c/wish/129677887 2016-10-11 02:59:17 UTC https://padlet.com/honomichl/pfdkhdcnuy9c/wish/129677887 Technology and Computer Science has evolved our society extremely fast. https://padlet.com/honomichl/pfdkhdcnuy9c/wish/129776188  It is time for educators to get "ahead of the curve" and serve the future generations. ]]> 2016-10-11 12:52:19 UTC https://padlet.com/honomichl/pfdkhdcnuy9c/wish/129776188 So https://padlet.com/honomichl/pfdkhdcnuy9c/wish/129785054 2016-10-11 13:11:46 UTC https://padlet.com/honomichl/pfdkhdcnuy9c/wish/129785054 Sometimes I feel as an educator I am behind the technology world.  This will help me to have an understanding and "catch up" with the students.  Hopefully, I will be able to create lessons for my students and together move forward in our technology world! https://padlet.com/honomichl/pfdkhdcnuy9c/wish/129785732 2016-10-11 13:13:16 UTC https://padlet.com/honomichl/pfdkhdcnuy9c/wish/129785732 Technology truly rules the world.  Children are far more advanced in this area than I am.  They are fearless and adventurous when experimenting, and that seems to advance them rapidly. https://padlet.com/honomichl/pfdkhdcnuy9c/wish/130874945 2016-10-14 20:16:25 UTC https://padlet.com/honomichl/pfdkhdcnuy9c/wish/130874945
