Here's #CASChat Question 1

What are the 'threshold concepts' in CS? The knowledge that unlocks deeper access to the curric. I'll start with 'computers can only process binary data' - opens up why all numbers/text/images/sound etc must be represented as bit patterns. #caschat #csScot #csEd #compSci

So today was my first day of independent work. I spent the day provided bespoke training on #3Dprinting and #lasercutting for #primary teachers It went really well. Happy to support schools with their #Computing journeys. #caschat #primary #training

Great lessons on #minecraft today. Year 3 children where making pixel art based on their designs. #caschat #3d #modeling #primary .

Best of luck to students sitting paper 1 CS GCSE today, and of course their brilliant teachers! 🙌⭐️⭐️ #CASChat Computing at School

They say effective learning can be messy ! That should definitely apply to today’s computing lesson where pupils from RGS The Grange will be adapting their maze games to work with arrow keys and then utilise Makey Makey to break out of the keyboard!

OK. Final question for this week's #CASChat Nice and simple one to round off this week...

I've renamed the department back to ICT and dropped Computer Science in favour of BTEC IT. Programming was always overrated.

#caschat

Year Six experimenting with conductive materials ⚡️
Obviously Nintendo UK #SuperMario was the obvious way of explaining that water is highly conductive utilising Makey Makey to demonstrate this 😆

Sneak peek at my geekosphere, as I got ready earlier today to deliver some CPD to United Learning's primary network on @Microbit_Edu #microbit
