Hello World, our free magazine for computing and digital making educators, has just published its second special edition: The Big Book of Computing Content<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

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

A special edition on the content we teach in the Computing classroom<\/h2>\n

While Hello World<\/a>\u2018s first special edition, The Big Book of Computing Pedagogy<\/em><\/a>, focused on how<\/em> we can teach Computing, this new book is about what<\/em> we mean by Computing. It aims to demonstrate the breadth of knowledge and skills contained within this constantly evolving subject.<\/p>\n

We have structured the new special edition around our taxonomy for for<\/a>m<\/a>al Computing education<\/a>, to which we map all our formal education resources. Originally we developed the taxonomy when we started work in the consortium setting up and delivering England\u2019s National Centre for Computing Education<\/a>, and specifically when we designed the 500 hours of classroom materials in the Teach Computing Curriculum<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n
\"The
The 11 strands of Computing content in our taxonomy.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

Our Computing taxonomy comprises eleven strands and aims to categorise Computing conceptual knowledge and skills to both demonstrate the breadth of Computing as a discipline, and to provide a common language to describe the different areas of study and competencies.<\/p>\n

The Big Book of Computing Content<\/em><\/a> complements our first Hello World special edition and follows the same principle of introducing readers to up-to-date research, followed by our favourite stories from past Hello World issues by educators who put that content into practice. For each of the eleven strands in our taxonomy, we also present a table of learning outcomes, which provides examples of knowledge and skills that learners from ages 5 to 19 could develop at each stage of their formal computing education.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Your thoughts on The Big Book of Computing Content<\/em><\/h2>\n

Hello World\u2019s first special edition was very popular around the world, with educators setting up Big Book of Computing Pedagogy<\/em> reading groups, leaders using the book to support pre-service teachers, and even of an upcoming translation into Thai.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve already started to hear similar stories about The Big Book of Computing Content<\/em><\/a> from Hello World readers, including CSEdResearch dedicating their Computer Science Education Discussion Group to all things Big Book of Computing Content<\/em> in its first week of publication.<\/p>\n

\n

We\u2019d love to hear from more educators about how you are using this new special edition, and how it complements your reading of the first Big Book<\/em>.<\/p>\n
