CSinPA Build | Fly | Code participants build drones from the ground up, earn their pilot wings through the science of flight, and utilize block-based coding to manipulate the drone’s flight. Participants will develop their CS knowledge and skills, design and implement CS learning experiences with drones in their classes, and explore ways to expand CS opportunities. Participants are given access to drone class-packs, which allow for 1:1 student engagement. The included drones are compact, modular and can be built and taken apart for each teaching session.
Each part of the CSinPA Build | Fly | Code curriculum is multi-modal and can be taught through in-classroom instruction and remote/distance learning. The curriculum is also standards-aligned, universally designed and culturally relevant.
Objectives
At the end of this training participants will be able to:
- Develop and identify STEM and CS instructional materials that are standards-aligned, universally designed and culturally relevant for in-person, hybrid, and/or distance learning environments
- Recognize and create a plan to close equity gaps in CS education, specifically for students with disabilities and other historically underrepresented populations, such as students of color and female students
- Articulate the need for CS education in our communities by describing real-life examples and applications
- Demonstrate foundational CS content knowledge and skills
Target Audience
6th-9th grade educators teaching in a 2018-19 PAsmart Targeted Grant LEA
