CS Decoded
An Integrated Approach
Tulare County Office of Education partnered with Google for Education to bring a cohort of educators from across California’s Central Valley together to learn and collaborate together to design CS standards-based, interdisciplinary learning experiences for grades 6-8. Using this integrated approach, all students engage in CS concepts/practices via required mathematics/science courses.
Setting the Foundation
CS Decoded Cohort Members participate in a sort to determine what computer science IS, and what it IS NOT.
Examining the CS Practices
CS Decoded Cohort Members view the computer science practices and note what the notice and wonder.
Sharing our Learning
CS Decoded Cohort Members use multiple means of action and expression to share learning with their peers, in alignment with Universal Design for Learning guidelines.
Exploring Computer Science Concepts
CS Decoded Cohort Members engage in activities that address the computer science concepts and each grade 6-8 California CS standard.
