Welcome to Computing Science Inside...
NEW: Full details of Feb/March seminar series.
Poster for the sessions.
Abstracts/descriptions for each session.
Sally Fincher - next week's talk - 19th February - this talk explores successful collaborative work between teachers based around sharing
experiences and practice. Sally has run a number of projects of this nature. She will talk briefly about them, but then
get the group working on the kind of exercises that have proved successful with other teachers. Teachers at the CPD session on the
12th indicated that this would be a very useful model to use during the adoption phase for the Curriculum for Excellence - so come
along and we can work on setting up some useful collaborative sharing!!
An online resource to bring Computing Science alive.
The Computing Science Inside project, CS Inside, provides web based resources for teachers and science communicators to bring Computing Science alive in the classroom. A series of workshops are available that focus on ideas in modern technology and demonstrate to students how these applications and devices work using fundamental Computing Science concepts. Through the workshops pupils will discover the power and excitement of Computing Science. This website provides resources for teachers and science communicators to deliver workshops on Computing Science as well as acitivities which can be tried out by students.
Workshops
Computing Science Inside workshops are based upon problem solving activities designed to illustrate concepts in Computing Science and enable pupils to work through popular and useful algorithms. There are also various materials available to aid the delivery of the workshops including teacher guides, pupil worksheets and demonstration materials. As well as the workshop material you can also find further information on the aims of the CS Inside project and the people behind it on this web site.
You can use our website to download workshops and other related materials. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us. |
