Learning outcomes
|
Main goal is to prepare future primary teachers to teach informatics. The subject touches key topics of computational thinking and digital literacy. Practical approach at seminars (introduction to educational materials and textbooks, work with robotic building set, in programming environments) are completed by lectures. These contain theoretical background of areas of educational goals, forms and methods of work in computer lab.
Course graduate is required to be able to understand educated concepts, to create a curricula, to lead education and reflect it, to assess pupil's work.
