Description
Driving Question:
How can I learn to code?
Description:
Learning to code is something everyone can do. This project makes use of resources published for the Hour of Code and organizes them into a "hackathon" for upper elementary or middle school students. Resources are easily followed and the teacher can learn with the students in a collaborative environment.
The project uses the Rank and Reason Tool and video to kickoff and engages students at the Wannabe level. Students can then move through tasks at the Junior Coder level, Code Monkey level, and finally Hacker Level - reflecting on their learning as they go.
What's Included with this Project:
NextLesson Projects are extended lessons based in real life situations or simulations, culminating in the creation of a final idea, interpretation or product. They are specifically designed to be ready to use and compatible with implementing PBL in your classroom. NextLesson Projects include 8 Key Components that facilitate an authentic PBL experience, requiring deeper learning and in-depth inquiry while also incorporating student voice and choice, reflection and revision and student collaboration.
