I recently participated in a Twitter chat about coding in the classroom. It was a great experience that I recommend everyone else should participate in. You can look at my recent blog post that explains what I thought of it here https://t.co/ivfl5jV9CK #uwpsoe4020
@misterwashburn I totally agree as when learning how to code it takes an understanding of logic and order processes that can be applies to multiple instances. That aspect alone is a great reason to tlearn coding. #games4ed
@mr_isaacs The class is setup as a blowoff math credit so it does not get much attention. Most of the students take it just to get the credit and not focus on the coding it self sadly. #games4ed
A1: At my high school there were dedicated coding class but were not a very good source of coding inforamtion. It was more of a, heres the code, and now do what I did. Not a very effective strategy when it comes to teaching coding in my opinion. #games4ed
