Actively participate
Reflect on discussions and modelling
Ask questions about what is and is not modelled
Think beyond what is discussed and modelled (what if I did . . . )

How to get the most out of our PD

Teacher Note:

Change this slide to make it relevant for your expectations for the online coding class.

Say:

You will get the most out of this online class if you actively participate and work on making the project interesting to you…
Etc.

Management

Think through potential management issues that you want to set expectations for. Below are a few suggestions:

Chat expectations: Keep chat relevant to the lesson.
Microphone expectations: Keep microphone muted unless given permission to unmute and share something relevant to the lesson
Screen Share: Share your screen only when given permission (In breakout rooms they can share their screen with their group.)
Breakout Rooms: Students may be working in Breakout rooms un-monitored by you as you help other students. Consider sending an email to parents explaining this and recommend that parents also supervise if possible.

Process Questions

Can you walk me through each step of the algorithm?
What happens if you change this (point) number to a larger or smaller number?
When might you use code like this in another project?
What happens if we change the order of the algorithm?
What could you add or change to this algorithm and what do you think would happen?
How might you use code like this in everyday life?

Debugging Questions

What should have happened but didn’t?
Which sprite(s) do you think the problem is located in?
What code is working and what code has the bug?
Can you walk me through the algorithm (steps) and point out where it’s not working?
Are there any blocks missing or out of place?
How would you code this if you were coding this algorithm from Scratch?
