Overview of Day 2 (5 minutes)

(5 minutes) Context Setting

Remarks

Today we are going to dig into the CS Discoveries curriculum, and learn about instructional strategies that support equitable CS classrooms and help all students feel included. Here is what we mean by equity and inclusion.

Facilitator Tip

It is important not to use equity and inclusion interchangeably. Equity includes access, diversity, and inclusion. Later in the week there will be more opportunity to dig into access and diversity.

The facilitator uses slides to highlight the definitions of equity.

  • Equity: CS classrooms are accessible and inclusive for all learners, and ensure that all learners have the opportunity to succeed in those classrooms
  • Inclusion: creating learning environments as well as using curricula and resources that are accessible,welcoming, and reflective of all students’ identities, backgrounds, differences, and perspectives.

Remarks

Yesterday we talked about identity. Students have identity markers that may impact the way they engage with CS and have the potential to impact a student’s feelings of inclusion in your CS class. Today we will be thinking about how we can support inclusion in our classrooms.
