Canada Learning Code Week 2020

Digital Citizenship: Online Safety

December 1st – 11th, 2020

Join thousands of educators across Canada and bring computer science into your classroom or extracurricular program! Our fourth annual Canada Learning Code Week is December 1st – 11th…slightly longer than a week because we understand how different teaching is these days! We’ll equip you with everything you need to feel confident about teaching computer science. Some FREE resources you can look forward to are a digital kit filled with amazing prep materials and training information delivered right to your e-mail inbox!

#3: Teach (and learn!) computer science tied to YOUR curriculum

All of our lesson plans leverage the K-12 Computer Science Education Framework to show direct ties to your curriculum.

Coding for a Safer Digital World Using Lesson Plans!

Because people in Canada spend the most time online compared to any other country in the world, help equip your students with the tools to stay safe in the digital space. Each lesson plan is easy to follow and leverages the K-12 Computer Science Education Framework to show direct ties to your curriculum. When you register to teach, you’ll receive additional resources to help you prepare AND a free digital kit! This year, all of our lesson plans are teachable in-person and online.

Technology Consumption Vs. Technology Creation

Embrace your inner Curious George and question everything! Challenge your students to think about how they use their tech and why. Using the “Consume, Curate, Create” taxonomy, students will begin to develop the necessary skills to be critical users of technology.
