Remarks

Thank you for engaging with the discussions and activities throughout the workshop in support of implementing and teaching CS Fundamentals equitably to all of your students.

(2 minutes) Ongoing Learning

Share with participants the on-going learning and support that is available after today’s workshop.

  • Next steps in CS Fundamentals Professional Learning experiences
  • Deep Dive Workshops: Dive deeper into CS teaching and learning practices, lesson planning, and equity in CS.
  • Optional Self-Paced Online PD: Free course to dive deeper into the CS Fundamentals Curriculum and review CS teaching practices.
  • Add any local information regarding CS education efforts and organizations

(8 minutes) One...

(1 minute) Participants choose one prompt to individually reflect on.

  • Prompts:

  • What is one…

    • idea you learned during the workshop?
    • action you will take to support equitable CS because of the workshop?
    • answer you have for questions you asked about access, inclusion, and diversity in CS?
    • word or a phrase to describe how you're feeling at the end of the workshop?

(5 minutes) Participants share their response to one of the prompts they chose, with the whole group.

Facilitator Tip

The intent is for participants to self-identify as someone who should teach CS with a variety of reasons as to why, instead of engaging in a discussion. Ideal example response, “Me! Because I have a curriculum, strategies, and resources.”

(2 minutes) Invite a few participants to respond to the prompt (which was first given at the beginning of the workshop).

  • Prompt: When you think of who should teach CS, who do you think of? Why?

General Wrap Up (10 minutes)

(5 minutes) Question Parking Lot

Facilitator Tip

When answering questions, try to also connect participants with resources that they can use beyond the workshop (forum, lesson plans, local CS information, etc).

Answer any remaining questions in the Question Parking Lot.

(5 minutes) Survey

  • Follow the instructions found in the Facilitators Tools Guide for how to end your workshop and send the final survey.
    • On the online workshop dashboard find your workshop and close the workshop during the closing of the workshop. Closing the workshop will send an end-of-workshop survey to all participants attending.
    • Make sure all the teachers in your workshop take the survey for the workshop before they leave.
