Description
This course, for third grade students, enables students to develop basic skills in computer science through engaging and age-appropriate content. The course exposes students, within developmentally appropriate stages, to concepts such as problem solving, algorithms, security/privacy/copyright, computer programming basics, and keyboarding skills. Students learn block-based coding in offline environments that build upon skills developed in previous grades. In addition to the computer skills, the course integrates standards from social studies, health, and language arts, and also focuses on bullying/cyberbullying and being a responsible citizen/digital citizen. The upper grades will complete research focused on adaptive technology, social media and/or robotics. The research will require students to evaluate reliable and relevant websites, organize data, receive and implement feedback, and produce a digital artifact.
Note: Requires purchase of a full year.
