Technology and Coding

Wow, what a great way to be ready for term 2.

The Energise conference was great PD for me. It made me very aware that I have a need to be more knowledgeable about coding and technology. The speakers were really inspirational and definitely made me rethink how I can incorporate these ideas into my hub.

One change that I have made this term is that I have been coding with the juniors and although this is just a start its a way forward and a way to get exposure for me. The juniors are amazing at trying new things and they know its ok to make mistakes and try things that they are unsure about.

Coding is the way forward and has many areas that students will gain skills in especially systematic reasoning, problem-solving and communication skills. These are all skills that they need to be 21-century learners.

My goal for this term is to be coding and be able to help and assist others with coding. I know that this is something that will be ongoing PD for me but I know that its something I need to start and get a good grasp on it now, to make me more knowledgeable for the future.

How are your coding skills? what advice do you have for me to be successful?
