DFI Session 8 - Thursday 25 June 2020


Coding and Computational Thinking

Great session! Exploring different ways of using coding was fun and interesting! I think this would be a great way to get students engaged and understand how things work and sequencing of codes. Also a lot of problem-solving would be involved when things don't work and find out how to solve it and what to use. Students would also be able to understand different symbols and their meanings. I can also see different aspects of Coding can be used in Maths. This will be great to trial. 



Some main points from today
