Teaching Coding without the Code

Matthew Thaxter, Director of eLearning & Adam Fragale, Curriculum and Professional Development Support Specialist

Friday, January 27, 2023 | 10:30am – 11:30am

Avalon #16 | Session 12

Students as young as 1st grade can be introduced to coding concepts way before they ever maneuver their first block of code. In the session, we will show you how to teach coding concepts without the actual code! We will be demonstrating different techniques to get students to think like programmers so they can understand the functions behind writing code. With these basic techniques, students should be able to dive into actual coding with more confidence and better understanding of what code should do.

Make a Splash With Teq and ClassLink

Teq has partnered with ClassLink for a TECHSPO Pool Party! Located at The Pool at Harrah’s in the cabana area on 1/25 from 8PM-11PM, come chat with us over a drink, a bite to eat, and a live band! Conference attendees have until the evening of 1/24 to register for this event, so make sure to sign up at booths 109/111 if you have not done so!
