More about this course
- On this four-week course, you'll examine a range of teaching methods suitable for teaching programming, particularly block-based programming languages, to primary school pupils.
- You'll look at general pedagogical concepts like Bloom's verbs, semantic waves and cognitive load, as well as programming specific approaches such as Parson's Problems or designing lessons using levels of abstraction.
- You'll have the chance to reflect on your current teaching practices, and how you can adapt your own lessons to take advantage of these approaches.
