Students at years 0-4 can access the Computational Thinking aspects of the Digital Technologies | Hangarau Matihiko curriculum through a series of games and thinking activities. Most of the work for years 0-4 is not device-based.

This course introduces these activities as well as spending time familiarising teachers with the terminology of the new curriculum area. It is intended for teachers and leaders at year 0-8 schools that are brand new to the idea of computational thinking. Topics covered include:

• algorithmic thinking
• debugging
• binary numbers
• sequencing
• loops

This course is almost entirely practical, and participants will be able to take several learning activities back to school.

Course location: TTS Hamilton

Course cost : $160 + GST per person, per course.
