When digital devices are
everywhere and internet access

00:00:12.490 --> 00:00:13.780 align:middle line:90%
is widespread...

00:00:13.780 --> 00:00:16.160 align:middle line:84%
When governments around
the world are recognising

00:00:16.160 --> 00:00:18.520 align:middle line:84%
the importance of computing
and adding the subject

00:00:18.520 --> 00:00:19.910 align:middle line:90%
to the school curriculum...

00:00:19.910 --> 00:00:23.100 align:middle line:84%
how can it be taught in a
way that engages young people

00:00:23.100 --> 00:00:25.550 align:middle line:84%
and is relevant to the
world they live in?

On the Teaching Computing online
course from the National STEM

00:00:28.600 --> 00:00:30.630 align:middle line:84%
Learning Centre,
you'll explore how

00:00:30.630 --> 00:00:33.070 align:middle line:84%
students in primary
and secondary education

00:00:33.070 --> 00:00:36.560 align:middle line:84%
learn computing, looking at
ways to introduce computing

00:00:36.560 --> 00:00:40.480 align:middle line:84%
concepts, plan lessons
and assess progress.

00:00:40.480 --> 00:00:43.680 align:middle line:84%
In particular you will look at
how computer programming can

00:00:43.680 --> 00:00:47.450 align:middle line:84%
be made accessible to children
of all ages and abilities.

00:00:47.450 --> 00:00:50.700 align:middle line:84%
You’ll consider safe and
effective use of the internet

00:00:50.700 --> 00:00:55.700 align:middle line:84%
as well as digital literacy
including digital citizenship.

Presented by Helena
Gillespie, lecturer

00:00:58.210 --> 00:01:01.740 align:middle line:84%
at the University of East Anglia
and a former primary teacher,

00:01:01.740 --> 00:01:03.840 align:middle line:84%
this course offers
you an overview

00:01:03.840 --> 00:01:06.300 align:middle line:84%
of the English National
Curriculum for Computing.

00:01:06.300 --> 00:01:10.010 align:middle line:84%
It asks how young people
interact with digital devices

00:01:10.010 --> 00:01:13.390 align:middle line:84%
and how to effectively teach
all aspects of computing.

00:01:13.390 --> 00:01:15.630 align:middle line:84%
You'll be part of a large
community of learners

00:01:15.630 --> 00:01:18.200 align:middle line:84%
sharing their experiences
and understanding,

00:01:18.200 --> 00:01:20.700 align:middle line:84%

Coordinator for Computing at
School about the background

00:01:24.050 --> 00:01:25.860 align:middle line:90%
to the computing curriculum.

00:01:25.860 --> 00:01:29.280 align:middle line:84%
You’ll hear, too, from other
industry and education experts

00:01:29.280 --> 00:01:33.410 align:middle line:84%
to understand the context
for the subject of computing.

00:01:33.410 --> 00:01:36.090 align:middle line:84%
If you are teaching or leading
computing in your school,

00:01:36.090 --> 00:01:38.710 align:middle line:84%
join us on the Teaching
Computing course.

00:01:38.710 --> 00:01:41.270 align:middle line:84%
Take part, and develop
your subject knowledge

00:01:41.270 --> 00:01:44.660 align:middle line:84%
