Coding for Educators Reflection
For my second Master's program, I am seeking a degree in educational technology, and my tech specialist degree. As part of that program, I have taken a class called Coding for Educators, which introduced simple coding programs like Scratch and Python, as well as different technology-focused tools that could be incorporated within the classroom. As that class comes to a close, I think it important to reflect upon the lessons and concepts that have been learned, in order to build on them moving forward in my career.
