Event Details
Intended Audience
This workshop is intended for K-5 educators new to computer science or to the Indiana Computer Science Standards, including:
- Computer Science Teachers
- Media/Library Specialists
- Resource/Tech Teachers
- General Education classroom teachers
Workshop Details
This workshop takes place over 2 virtual Zoom sessions. By registering, you are signing up to participate on:
- Monday, March 23, 2026, 6:00-8:00PM ET, AND
- Wednesday, March 25, 2026, 6:00-8:00PM ET.

Objectives
Perfect for k-5 teachers new to computer science or the 2023 Indiana Computer Science Standards, this workshop prepares you to teach the Code Studio courses for grades k-5.
The workshop provides an intro to computer science, pedagogy, overview of the online curriculum, teacher dashboard, and strategies for teaching “unplugged” classroom activities (lessons without devices) as well as exploring the Indiana K-5 Computer Science standards and how the Code.org CS Fundamentals (and others) curriculum maps to them.
Code.org’s Computer Science Fundamentals is a curriculum designed for K-5. Each course (one per grade level) has about 15 lessons that may be implemented as one unit or over the course of a semester. Students create computer programs that will help them learn to collaborate with others, develop problem-solving skills, and persist through difficult tasks. They will study programming concepts, computational thinking, digital citizenship, and develop interactive games or stories they can share.
Code.org’s Computer Science Fundamentals is for students (and teachers) new to Computer Science. Each course (A-F) begins with a grade appropriate entry point and structured ramp up concepts. The progression of courses builds on each other to ensure continuing students learn new things.
Stipend and PGP Points
This workshop is eligible for a $100 incentive for all attendees.
Workshop attendees will receive 6 PGP points.
This workshop is eligible for CSPDWeek Continuing Education.
