Teaching a Foreign Language with Computational Thinking #1043


Sat, Feb 20, 09:30-10:10 JST | Room EK

This presentation aims to demonstrate how to use Scratch as a tool to teach students a foreign language while enabling them to develop computational thinking. As this workshop is designed for practitioners who do not have any prior knowledge about coding and computer science, workshop participants are expected to practice Scratch activities created by the presenter to get familiar with the block-based programming tool and functions during this workshop. Participants will come away with ideas to create their own Scratch lessons while practicing with the given examples. Since Scratch was developed for children, K-12 instructors are welcome to join this session.
