Teaching Tip

This will be the first time a lot of teachers have thought about the pathway of computer science in their district (especially for those who are new to teaching CS). You can use the community session as a reminder of the shared stakeholders. Since this is the halfway point, you should start to see anxiety lessen as people become more confident.

Meet with your co-facilitator(s) to debrief the day’s events.

Use Section 9 in your Facilitator Handbook as your guide to Check in on the Rapport of your Participants.
