Coding in Early Childhood Education
In recent years there has been a big national push to focus on promoting coding and computer science education. But what does coding look like for very young children and how can it fit into a playful early childhood context? This course answers these questions by providing participants with an understanding of how to support young children’s (PreK-2nd grade) learning of coding and computational thinking through hands-on, playful, and creative ways. Participants will learn what coding is and how it can be used to support self-expression and creativity during the foundational early childhood years.

For me, not as literal with Technologies, this course really helped me feel comfortable enough to try and to learn more so I can help plan to teach to my young preschoolers. but I feel that I will have to revisit this course later to truly grasp the concepts of this course, which means that I have a lot to practice for before I can teach.

This course gave me more insight on coding, what it means and how important it is for our technology future. It also explained why coding is important to introduce to young children. Wonderful resources throughout this course with ideas for teachers/parents to use with or without computers. Great course!
