Connecting face to face with educators around the world is a key part of our mission at the Raspberry Pi Foundation, and it\u2019s something that we\u2019ve sorely missed doing over the last two years. We\u2019re therefore thrilled to be joining over 1000 computing educators in the USA at the Computer Science Teachers Association (CSTA) Annual Conference in Chicago in July.<\/p>\n

You will find us at booth 521 <\/strong>in the expo hall throughout the conference, as well as running four sessions. Gemma, Kevin, James, Sue, and Jane are team members representing Hello World magazine<\/a>, the Raspberry Pi Computing Education Research Centre<\/a>, and our other free programmes and education initiatives<\/a>. We thank the team at CSTA for involving us in what we know will be an amazing conference.<\/p>\n

Talk to us about computer science pedagogy<\/h2>\n

Developing and sharing effective computing pedagogy is our theme for CSTA 2022. We\u2019ll be talking to you about our 12 pedagogy principles, laid out in The Big Book of Computing Pedagogy<\/em><\/a>, available to download for free.<\/p>\n

\n
\"Cover<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

An exciting piece of news is that everyone attending CSTA 2022 will find a free print copy<\/strong> of the Big Book<\/em> in their conference goodie bag!<\/p>\n

We\u2019re really looking forward to sharing and discussing the book and all our work with US educators, and to seeing some familiar faces. We\u2019re also hoping to interview lots of old and new friends about your approaches to teaching computing and computer science for future Hello World podcast<\/a> episodes.<\/p>\n

Your sessions with us<\/h2>\n

Our team will also be running a number of sessions where you can join us to learn, discuss, and prepare lesson plans.<\/p>\n

Semantic Waves and Wavy Lessons: Connecting Theory to Practical Activities and Back Again<\/h3>\n

Thursday 14 July, 9am\u201312pm: Pre-conference workshop<\/a> (booking required) with James Robinson and Jane Waite<\/p>\n

If you enjoy explaining concepts using unplugged activities, analogy, or storytelling, then this practical pre-conference session is for you. In the session, we\u2019ll introduce the idea of semantic waves, a learning theory that supports learners in building knowledge of new concepts through careful consideration of vocabulary and contexts. Across the world, this approach has been successfully used to teach topics ranging from ballet to chemistry \u2014 and now computing.<\/p>\n

\n
\"Three<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

You\u2019ll learn how this theory can be applied to deliver powerful explanations that connect abstract ideas and concrete experiences. By taking part in the session, you\u2019ll gain a solid understanding of semantic wave theory, see it in practice in some freely available lesson plans, and apply it to your own planning.<\/p>\n

Write for a Global Computing Community with Hello World Magazine<\/h3>\n

Friday 15 July, 1\u20132pm: Workshop with Gemma Coleman<\/p>\n

Do you enjoy sharing your teaching ideas, successes, and challenges with others? Do you want to connect with a global community of over 30,000 computing educators? Have you always wanted to be a published author? Then come along to this workshop session.<\/p>\n

\n
\"Issues
Hello World has been going strong for five years \u2014 find out how you can become one of its authors.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

Every single computing or CS teacher out there has at least one lesson to share, idea to voice, or story to tell. In the session, you\u2019ll discuss what makes a good article with Gemma Coleman, Hello World\u2019s Editor, and you\u2019ll learn top tips for how to communicate your ideas in writing. Gemma will also guide you through writing a plan for your very own article. Even if you\u2019re not sure whether you want to write an article, doing this is a powerful way to reflect on your teaching practice.<\/p>\n

Developing a Toolkit for Teaching Computer Science in School<\/h3>\n

Saturday 16 July, 4\u20135pm: Keynote talk by Sue Sentance<\/p>\n

To teach any subject requires good teaching skills, knowledge about the subject being taught, and specific knowledge that a teacher gains about how to teach a particular topic, to their particular students, in a particular context. Teaching computer science is no different, and it\u2019s a challenge for teachers to develop a go-to set of pedagogical strategies for such a new subject, especially for elements of the subject matter that they are just getting to grips with themselves.<\/p>\n

\n
\"12<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

In this keynote talk, our Chief Learning Officer Sue Sentance will focus on some of the 12 pedagogy principles that we developed to support the teaching of computer science. We created this set of principles together with other teachers and researchers to help us and everyone in computing and computer science education reflect on how we teach our learners. Sue will share how we arrived at the principles, and she\u2019ll use classroom examples to illustrate how you can apply them in practice.<\/p>\n

Exploring the Hello World Big Book of Computing Pedagogy<\/h3>\n

Sunday 17 July, 9\u201310am: Workshop with Sue Sentance<\/p>\n

The set of 12 pedagogy principles we\u2019ve developed for teaching computing are presented in our Hello World Big Book of Computing Pedagogy.<\/em> The book includes summaries, teachers\u2019 perspectives, and lesson plans for each of the 12 principles.<\/p>\n

\n
\"A<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

All CSTA attendees will get their own print copy of the Big Book<\/em>, and in this practical session, we will use the book to explore together how you can use the 12 principles in the planning and delivery of your lessons. The session will be very hands-on, so bring along something you know you want or need to teach.<\/p>\n

See you at CSTA in July<\/h2>\n

CSTA is now just a month away, and we can\u2019t wait to meet old friends, make new connections, and learn from each other! Come find us at booth 521 or at our sessions to meet the team, discover Hello World magazine and the Hello World podcast, and find out more about our educational work. We hope to see you soon.<\/p>\n
