Launch_K5 Computer Science Training - Day 1

Complete Attendance not available before workshop starts.

Bring computer science and computational thinking to your elementary classroom with Launch_K5, a 3-day hybrid workshop for K-5 educators. This training aligns with the new Tech Apps TEKS for the 2024-2025 school year and integrates computational thinking, computer science, cyber security, and AI into your curriculum. You’ll receive both unplugged and plugged lessons and learn block-based coding and physical computing.

Participants MUST attend all three days (2 in-person, 1 asynchronous) to receive credit. Day 1 covers foundational concepts. Day 2 training is split into grade bands; K-2 (October 18) and 3-5 (October 24). You will be registered for the appropriate grade band training once you have completed Day 1. The online course can be completed at your convenience after Day 2 but MUST be completed by December 13.

Upon completion, you’ll receive a CPE certificate from the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) at The University of Texas at Austin. You will NOT receive workshop credit from Region 7 ESC for this training. K-2 educators will receive 2 VEX robots, and 3-5 educators will receive 10 Micro:bit kits. This workshop is open exclusively to K-5 teachers. Register now to enhance your teaching toolkit!
