Introduction to Computing Science Progression Pathways (Online)


Why? 

Computing Science Progression Pathways have been developed by Edinburgh Learns Digital to support schools in the teaching of progressive Computing Science skills. This showcases a progression of digital skills organised alongside the Curriculum for Excellence’s Technology Organisers and corresponding Benchmarks.

This session will guide you through the document, explore some of the suggested resources, show how it can be used as a practical tool for assessment, and include hands-on time to explore the pathway in depth.

Who is this for?  
This session is aimed at Primary teachers working within Early to Second Level. However, secondary colleagues are welcome to come along to see the content covered in the Pathways.
