Computer Science Integration Asynchronous Modules

Computer Science Integration will help teachers explore Computer Science and learn how to integrate the VA CS SOLs into core curriculum with students.

Description

This course is offered asynchronously and is delivered via Canvas.

Participants will gain a deeper understanding of the computer science conceptual strands and focus on methods to help identify overlapping topics and concepts. Through this course, educators will design integrated lessons for their classroom using CodeVA's Computer Science Integration Guide and explore pre-made lessons with our facilitators skilled at integrating Computer Science into their own K-8th grade classrooms.

There are three course format options for this course. Please be sure you are registering for the correct one, based on your preferences.

  1. Facilitated, time constrained version (usually two weeks to complete all modules and assignments) resulting in a certificate of completion.

  2. Not Facilitated, not time constrained version not resulting in a certificate of completion (e-learning that is informational and reflective only)

  3. Not Facilitated, not time constrained version resulting in a certificate of completion. (e-learning with required coursework submitted for review) Now live! 

Disclaimer Statement for e-Learning Modules 

You are enrolled in the same course for either option; the choice to proceed with the required checkpoint quizzes to earn a certificate is yours to make and you may change your mind at any time and return to the quizzes to earn completion credit for each module.
