Get ready for CS Education Week with this interactive webinar tailored for computer science educators! Join us to explore how Visual Studio Code for Education can enhance your classroom with engaging coding activities, like our latest activity series, Memory Matrix. This activity guides students through building a memory card game that highlights influential figures in computer science history, fostering both technical skills and historical appreciation. By creating this HTML, CSS, and JavaScript-based game, students bring hidden stories in computer science to light while gaining foundational programming skills.
In this session, educators will:
- learn how to leverage Visual Studio Code for Education as a robust, classroom-ready tool for teaching coding skills.
- dive into Memory Matrix to see how it integrates core programming concepts—like loops, conditionals, and functions—through hands-on learning.
- discover best practices in CS pedagogy, with tips on engaging students, customizing activities, and connecting code to broader historical and technical themes.
By the end of this webinar, you’ll have new tools, techniques, and resources to make CS Education Week memorable and inspiring for your students. Verified Educators, click here to access the educator resources for Memory Matrix.
