Recenzii
"I will be recommending this book to all the secondary school computer science teachers I know. The book is filled with insights from both scholarly research and the author's years of experience as a computing teacher. I predict that it will become part of the toolkit for all new Computing teachers." - Mark Guzdial, Georgia Institute of Technology, USA
"William Lau has created a wonderful resource for secondary school teachers to bring computing into the classroom. Lau’s beautifully written book provides a cross curricular approach, where computing is seen as a tool for problem-solving, self-expression and asking fertile questions about the world." - Linda Liukas, Author of Hello Ruby and Founder of Rails Girls
"A sensible, practical and thorough book for secondary computing teachers at any level of experience." - Jane Waite, CAS Regional Centre for London, UK
"William’s insight into computing is amazing! The book thoroughly explores the foundation of computing and provides very useful advice. I highly recommend this book if you want to take your teaching and innovation in your lessons to the next level." - Mark Martin, Urban Teacher Ed-Tech Expert & Start-Up Mentor
"Following his demonstration of exemplar studentship here at Warwick University, William has pursued a deep interest in the teaching of Computing in Key Stages 1-5. Through intensive study and practice, he has developed a deep understanding of teaching and learning especially as it applies to this challenging subject. He communicates his enthusiasm energetically, both in his own teaching and throughout the book. The book interleaves pedagogy, computing content, theoretical principles and good practices according to a well thought out, integrated and explicit architecture. It promises to be a valuable resource for teachers of this exciting and current subject." - Dr Andrew Martin, University of Warwick, UK
"This book is a one-stop shop for both teachers and leaders of computing in secondary schools (although much of it will be of use to primary colleagues too). The author, drawing on copious research as well as his own experience, provides extensive guidance. A must for every Computing teacher’s bookshelf." - Terry Freedman, Education Technology Consultant
"Schools in the US and UK are wisely striving to bring the study of Computing into the mainstream and make it accessible to all students. But as valuable as it is, it remains a complex subject, challenging to teach and fraught with logistical and pedagogical challenges that demand consideration. This book should be on the must-read list for any school or teacher that wants to add or refine a high quality Computing curriculum. It’s informed by careful study and application of learning science and drills down in the details of curriculum design and instructional methods. I highly recommend it." - Doug Lemov, Managing Director of Uncommon Schools, and author of Teach Like a Champion
"This book offers useful and very detailed advice on all aspects of teaching computing - covering planning, delivery, and leadership and management." - Terry Freedman, Teach Secondary
