The course is organized into 6 weeks, with each week building off of the previous week. Concepts begin at the big picture level and gradually drill into more and more complex building blocks of concepts, finishing off with tech apps and a review.

The structure was informed from feedback from the Face-to-Face trainings in which participants wanted to spend more time on the computer science concepts and less on the technology applications concepts. Also informed by the upcoming August 2016 changes to the educator standards in which tech apps content will be reduced to 12.5% of the test material.

Course Implementation

There are a couple of ideas in play for the implementation of the course.

• Course offered synchronously, week by week

• Course offered asynchronously, go at your own pace

• Course offered for continuing education credits (gating would be needed)

• Course offered as a study material (people could choose which parts to do)

It may be worth it to have two different course sections to accommodate these disparate needs.
