Bringing Coding Into the Art Room
3 PD Hours
1 Identify and integrate a variety of coding tools and techniques aligned with your budget and age level needs.
2 Build student confidence using coding in the art room through scaffolded lessons from early elementary through advanced students.
3 Engage critical thinking and problem-solving skills to create meaningful connections between art and technology.
Coding is an engaging process with real-world relevance that can bring artworks to life. However, it can be intimidating for those with little to no experience to guide them. Join facilitator Catie Nasser as she shares how you don’t have to be an expert to introduce coding to your students. She’ll walk you through how to begin explaining coding to kids and get them working with this computer language through artmaking. Through no tech, low tech, and high tech ideas, this Pack will give you all you need, including the confidence, to get started with coding in the art room.
