Description

Join Tim Bell to learn how to teach computational thinking. These are concepts that you can take back to your tamariki and use immediately. Each session will be recorded for the CS Unplugged at a distance website. This workshop is free and includes a coffee voucher for each session you attend. There are three workshops in total, this is the third workshop of three. 

This workshop will cover: 

Information theory (a game that helps us understand what information is)
Finite State Automata (a map-reading game that introduces a fundamental idea in CT)

CS Unplugged at a Distance is an adaptation of the CS Unplugged activities to support teachers faced with delivering teaching online, and for those delivering professional development virtually, to share the experience of teaching CS Unplugged face-to-face and online. It is a series of learning opportunities to grow your participants' understanding of computer science concepts and how they relate to their world, whether your participants are students in a classroom, or teachers attending professional development.
