Skills you will learn
More about this course
  • In the first two weeks of this course, you'll be introduced to a range of pedagogical approaches suitable for Key Stage 3. You'll look at a range of pedagogies aimed at developing your students' computational thinking skills, from unplugged approaches to PRIMM, and more. You'll also investigate worked examples and targeted tasks such as Parson's Problems.
  • In the final week of this course, you'll see several of these pedagogies in action as you work on a rock-paper-scissors game, and think about how the teaching could be adapted for use with your students.
