Distance learning requires a flip in the way we engage students with Computer Science material. An alternate approach is to have students explore and question so that they are motivated to learn concepts when it is emergent for them. This webinar will discuss approaches to a play-first methodology for teaching computer science.

Intended audience: Those who teach grades 6-8.  The slides for this webinar are available via Google Drive
