Computational thinking skills can empower students to create computational artifacts that allow for personal expression. Educators recognize that design and creativity can encourage a growth mindset and work to create meaningful CS learning experiences and environments that inspire students to build their skills and confidence around computing in ways that reflect their interests and experiences
4a: Design CT activities where data can be obtained, analyzed, and represented to support problem-solving and learning in other content areas.
4b: Design authentic learning activities that ask students to leverage a design process to solve problems with awareness of technical and human constraints and defend their design choices.
4c: Guide students on the importance of diverse perspectives and human-centered design in developing computational artifacts with broad accessibility and usability.
4d: Create CS and CT learning environments that value and encourage varied viewpoints, student agency, creativity, engagement, joy and fun.
DroneBlock Activity
4d: Create CS and CT learning environments that value and encourage varied viewpoints, student agency, creativity, engagement, joy and fun. This activity aligns with this standard because we learned each function and taught them to the students so they could explore/create the different types of codes and games. This allows for self-direction because of the responsibility the students gain when creating a code by themselves.
Digital MakerSpace
4b: Design authentic learning activities that ask students to leverage a design process to solve problems with awareness of technical and human constraints and defend their design choices. This activity aligns with this standard because the Nearpod will challenge the students to think on their own to activate prior knowledge and solve a problem when presented with a question/problem. There is a drawing portion in the Nearpod that the students can choose how they would like to create their plants and discuss it.
STAR Hero Journey - Metro E Activity
4c: Guide students on the importance of diverse perspectives and human-centered design in developing computational artifacts with broad accessibility and usability. This activity aligns with this standard because the students will be uploading artifacts, they will be creating on Nearpod and transferring that to Flip. This will help broaden the students perspective on developing design through understanding the steps.
