It’s been an eventful year, and, not surprisingly, things did not turn out as I had planned. Most of my more sobering moments revolved around teaching computer science, which I enjoy immensely but in my second year realized that my approach was a bit wrong-headed. \u00a0This dovetailed with the ideas that were percolating due to my involvement in C21, so I decided to try out a combination of Design Thinking, independent learning and drag-and-drop coding (in the form of MIT’s App Inventor) to try to do several things at once:<\/p>\n
The real test of this approach will be the outcome of their app-building project, which will begin next week and take the rest of the school year. \u00a0Watch this space for updates.<\/p>\n
