Check out the final projects that came out of my Create With Code class!
They ranged from 2nd grade teachers developing Math Lessons with programmable robots to Internet of Things Projects with Raspberry Pi (Node Red) and everything in between.
If you or an educator, librarian, wants spend a semester becoming more confident with coding using a variety of strategies available to go BEYOND HOUR OF CODE, this might be the course for you. NO CODING EXPERIENCE required. Complete Beginners Welcomed!

MAT621.F16 Innovations in Education: Create with Code FALL, 2016
Register at https://www.marlboro.edu/admissions/graduate/application/cep/CEP
Taught by Lucie deLaBruere
| This iteration of Create with Code is for elementary to high school educators with little to no experience programming who want to learn enough about code to use it in their teaching. There is significant evidence that all students need to understand basic programming in today's world, no matter their career choices. And, coding is finding its way into students' Personal Learning Plans. This course will give you the confidence to guide student's personal learning projects that may involve creating with code. It will also provide you with ideas for integrating basic coding into a variety of curriculum areas. Whether you decide to build a separate coding class, or integrate coding into your content area, this course will get you started using both graphical and text based coding platforms. We will combine graphical coding platforms (like Scratch/Blockly/SNAP) and text based programming using either a Raspberry Pi or Arduino micro-controller. Major assignments will have students: 1: Create digital stories and games with code 2: Control physical objects with code 3: Examine ways to integrate coding and computational thinking into your learning environment.
Participants will need access to a Raspberry Pi or Arduino based microprocessor and one physical object that can be controlled by coding. These may be purchased, or borrowed, via an optional $50 lab fee.
