Code this!

Session 2

Kader Adjout, Joe Christy — Beaver Country Day School

Room 1072

What’s the big talk about coding? Can coding be used in humanities classes? This workshop will engage participants in a discussion on coding and interdisciplinary projects. We will look at interdisciplinary projects done between history, math, and science classes. Participants will work on similar projects in groups, using coding to visualize their research. Participants will also discuss and share suggestions about our projects and brainstorm ideas to implement in their daily teaching.

Conversational Practice

We plan on sharing project ideas and the different processes, and we will have participants code data and take useful tips to implement brainstorming and coding tools in their classrooms. Participants will realize how coding can be a useful tool to present data and allow for interdisciplinary work.
