Facilitation Guide

Parking Lot and Asynchronous Work (10 minutes)

(2 minutes) 💷 Clear the Question Parking Lot

Use this time to address outstanding question parking lot issues. Don't hesitate to give items from the parking lot back out to the group to answer.

(3 minutes) 💷 Review Asynchronous work

As a facilitator, take your time during this portion of the wrap-up to stress the importance of the asynchronous work. You may even want to pull up the asynchronous work to show participants what they will be engaging in during this time.

The focus of Module 6 will be on the Create Performance Task. Use the slides to review the basics of the Create Task.

Goal of the Create PT:

  • Create a program
  • Identify purpose, process, algorithm and abstraction

Process:

  • Students need 12 in class hours for the task
  • How it connects to the Exam
    • Is 30% of the final score
  • What to submit:
    • Video of running program
    • PDF of program code
    • Written Responses to prompts 3A-D

Facilitator Tip

While the core concept behind the Create Performance Task is simple (students create an app and write about it), the prompts and rubric for the task require students to include specific features in their code and more importantly write about those features in a particular way that meets the rubric requirement. In the next workshop, participants will be practicing grading Create Performance Tasks to get an understanding of what a submission will look like. To be prepared to engage in the grading, the asynchronous work will help participants understand the rubric better prior to the next synchronous call.

Use the slides to guide your overview of asynchronous work for the next module. In this case, participants will be asked to:

  • Look at the Create Performance Task Requirements.
  • Review the teacher’s role before and while students are working on the Create Performance Task.
  • Dive in to parts of the Create Performance Task that might be challenging for students.

Remind participants of how they can get support if they have questions about the asynchronous work.

Finally remind participants of when their next call is.

Survey (5 minutes)

(5 minutes) Complete Survey

  • 💷 If you are facilitating one module today:

    • Show the slide at the end of the deck that includes the appropriate link based on your virtual workshop model. Make sure all the teachers in your workshop take the survey before they leave.
    • During the closing session of the even-numbered modules (M2, M4, M6, M8) CLOSE THE WORKSHOP. Follow the instructions found in the Facilitator Tools Guide. If you are only facilitating an odd-numbered module today (M1, M3, M5,or M7) DO NOT CLOSE THE WORKSHOP.
  • If you are facilitating two modules today:

    • During the closing session of the second module (M2, M4, M6, M8), show the slide at the end of the deck that includes the appropriate link based on your virtual workshop model. Make sure all the teachers in your workshop take the survey before they leave. On the workshop dashboard find your workshop and CLOSE THE 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:

  1. Don’t worry! This is likely an issue with how the workshop was scheduled in the dashboard.
  2. 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.
  3. Let participants know the survey will be coming via email within a few days, and send participants "home" for the day.
  4. 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.
  5. Code.org will work with Regional Partner to send the survey link to teachers.
