  • 7 and 8th Grade STEM/Robotics
  • I am interested in the App Design and Interactive Animations.
  • I am excited that CS Discoveries seems more accessible than MIT App Inventor. My students really struggled with that program this year and most students did not get to a level where they could code independently without tutorials or teacher help.

My name is Melissa Ciranni and I teach 7-12 grade. I hope to teach students more about tech and coding in the ELA classroom. I am most excited to just be more knowledgable and relevant.

I am a county-level coach and specialist. I am currently onboarding as a facilitator for CS Discoveries so that I might facilitate professional development for the course in the future. I am excited to be a part of the community of educators furthering CS education!

I’m Scott Dieringer. I will be teaching 9-12 grade. I have never taught anything code related and I don’t know where to start. I’m going through as much PD on here as I can to become familiar with the topics.

My name is Gina. I will be teaching CSD to students in grades 6-8. I used to use Courses 1-4 for many years in a middle school, but this will be my first time teaching CSD. I will likely be teaching the first two units the first year and rolling out two more each year except for The Design Process which is covered by another course within the school.

Hi! My name is Hallie Peacock. I just got done with the CS Discoveries virtual class. I teach K-12 at my school in Nenana, AK. I do interventions as well as a few HS classes. I am not sure which units I will be teaching, as I am waiting for the final say from my admin about what the year is going to look like. I am excited about teaching CS Discoveries because I have done fundamentals with K-5 and it was a blast.

Hello guys. My name is Dennis and I am planning to teach CS Discoveries to my students from Grades 7-11. I am excited on how will my student react to the new learnings.

Hi,

My name is Johnny Ng and I mainly teach 10th grade. We will be trialing out the physical computing section of CS: Discoveries as an after-school session to see whether students have an interest in the subject. I am very excited for students to think using computer logic and to see possible futures in tech.

Cheers,
Johnny

Hi Molly,
Welcome to the forum! I’m also an engineer who switched careers many years ago. I enjoy teaching CS Discoveries to 7th-8th graders, and I hope you do too.

My name is Rebbecca and I am teaching 7th and 8th grade computer. I plan to start with Unit 1 for both grades. We are also doing typing, study skills, and digital citizenship during the semester. I’m also teaching a Media Arts elective. I’m hoping to do Unit 2 or 3 with that class.
