Session 12: Wrap Up
30 minutes
discussion-based
Purpose
This session begins by wrapping up the “Role of the Student” theme for the day. There is also time for the facilitators to answer questions and address specific needs of the participants in the room. The goal in answering questions is to connect participants with resources that they can use to extend their learning beyond the workshop.
In addition, there is time for participants to complete the workshop survey prior to departing.
Objectives
- Participants engage in the “journaling” teaching and learning strategy
- Participants work on developing the skills necessary to continue to build their CS content and pedagogical knowledge outside of the walls of the workshop through avenues like the forum, the community’s shared resources, online courses, peer collaboration,
- Participants reflect on the day and provide workshop feedback

Theme Wrap Up (10 minutes)
(2 minutes) Journaling
Today we have focused on the “Role of the Student” in a CS classroom. We have seen that a teacher plays a role in creating an inclusive learning environment in which all students can thrive in their roles.
Prompts:
- How will you maintain an inclusive learning environment to empower students to take an active role in their learning in your classroom?
- List at least three concrete things you will do to support inclusion and active learning in your classroom.
Discussion Goal
By this point in the day, participants should demonstrate an understanding of both what active learning looks like and the role the teacher plays in creating an inclusive learning environment conducive to this type of learning.
(8 minutes) Share Out
Participants share out their reflections with the whole group.

(10 minutes) Question Parking Lot Clean Out
Facilitator Tip
When answering questions, try to also connect participants with resources that they can use beyond the workshop (forum, slide deck, lesson plans, “Help & Tips” tabs, etc).
Answer any remaining questions in the question parking lot.
(2 minutes) Closing Announcements
Wrap Up the Workshop
- When will you see each other next?
- What kind of reminders should people have leaving the day?
(8 minutes) Survey
- Show the slide at the end of the deck that includes the appropriate link based on your in-person workshop model (in-person, 1-day OR in-person, 2-day).
- Make sure all the teachers in your workshop take the survey for the workshop before they leave.
- On the online workshop dashboard find your workshop and close the workshop during the closing of an in-person, 1-day OR during the final closing of an in-person, 2-day workshop.
- Follow the instructions found in the Facilitator Tools Guide.
Having trouble with the survey?
If your participants get an error message when you share the survey link, please follow these steps:
- Don’t worry! This is likely an issue with how the workshop was scheduled in the dashboard.
- Ask your participants to take a few minutes to share their "gots and needs" in the chat. This will allow you to receive quick feedback to inform your post-workshop debrief.
- Let participants know the survey will be coming via email within a few days, and send participants "home" for the day.
- Contact your Regional Partner to let them know the survey link didn’t work, and ask the Regional Partner to follow-up with Code.org on the next business day.
- Code.org will work with Regional Partner to send the survey link to teachers.
