BostonFIGs annual festival took over two buildings in Harvard's athletic complex on September the 14th, exhibiting some of the most creative game development minds within New England.  CT CSTA Secretary, avid game player and designer Christopher Kerr was on hand to capture the action and take a few lessons back to the classroom.   What did he learn this year and what was uncovered that YOU use in your classroom?  Find out after the jump!

 

So honored to join Seth Freeman and Shannon Marimon in Las Vegas, NV for Global CS Ed Con! 

 

I have spent the past two days sharing and learning from amazing CS educators, policy advocates, and district leaders from across the US.  I am in awe of the amount of passion and creative thinking that can happen when inspired people assemble together.  I felt honored to take part in this first-of-its-kind Global CS Ed Conference!  

 

Some things you must know:

1) There are CSTA Educator Standards - these are the things CS Teachers need to do well.  You should check them out and review them!  Do this HERE.

2) CS For All has created SCRIPT, a support system complete with RUBRICS and RESOURCES to support districts to come up with a plan for themselves.  

3) CT CSTA and CSTA are here for you.  Please join us at meetings!  We cannot wait to create and share more ideas in person!
