The skill of coding can begin very early and there are ways early educators and caregivers can enhance this skill with and without devices. In this session, participants will have opportunities to engage as learners in various types of coding activities. Even if you have never coded before, this session can empower you to begin your own journey of learning and build a foundation for successful early coders in the classroom and home.
The AIMS Education Foundation supports pre-service teachers and in-service teachers in deepening their expertise in mathematics and science teaching through continuing education scholarships.
