Supporting Computer Science Teaching Beyond Syllabus: ICT for Cooperation and Reflection
Pages 587 - 588
Abstract
Ensuring effective and up-to-date ways of teaching Computer Science (CS) at the pre-university level could ensure more relevant and higher quality education for future generations. The current situation is unclear and granulated, especially with computer science teachers' skills, methods, and relevance of topics that they teach. The research presented here aims to map skills that these teacher should have, understand the methods that are currently being used, understand reflection in classroom and collaboration. Ultimately we aim to include this new knowledge in an ICT tool that could aid CS teachers' practice.
