Future of EdTech Educator
Coding is not just a process but a language in and of itself. In education, it is often limited to afterschool programs or an independent course. While these approaches can have a positive impact on students, it does not give all students access and opportunities to discover coding's role in their learning. To solve this, I developed a curriculum that synthesizes coding and literacy in the elementary classroom. Beyond the benefits and skills gained through coding, it allows the writing process to become visual and hands-on, giving students a completely new way to develop writing and coding literacies. Come learn how I developed this program and bring it into your classroom.
