Welcome to the forum, pair programming can be very powerful and I’ve used it in other classes with great success, not just a computer science tool!

We have been learning the awesome TLO method of learning/teaching and my group just completed our TLO on Search Engines. It was so fun and went super fast! :heart:

I’ve learned a lot, but I am partial to CSS.

I really enjoyed the programming learning and hands-on.activities. This is a terrific fit for our district!

I learned what the Discoveries curriculum includes and how I can implement it in the next year.

Scavenger Hunt Post: This week has helped me learn and understand the importance of self discovery for our students!

I learned that could take out parts of lessons/change them - with minimum background knowledge I had been following lesson plans pretty completely which was making things long and drawn out for some things.

Pair programming is a new technique for next year, and HTML is my rest-of-summer exploration.

I learned that code.org has partnered with Kahoot to create a series of quizzes!

Great workshops. I obtained a ton of resources for my class.

This workshop gave me a structure I have lacked to teach CS in my middle school.

In the summer workshop this week, I have learned too much to sum up into one post. I am very impressed by the dynamic lessons, full curriculum guide and all the resources. I feel confident that we can implement this easily into our school.

I am enjoying the ease of the CSD curriculm!

I learned what pair programming is and how to use it!
