DHSBs Next EdTech Webinar: Running a Successful Computer Science Curriculum on a Chromebook7/12/2020 EdTech National Demonstrator School, Devonport High School for Boys will be hosting their next webinar next week. Monday 14 December 2020 | 1600 - 1700
Hosted by Paul Scott, Head of Computer Science and Claire Buckler, Director of Learning Commons Free to attend. This short webinar will focus on using the Chromebook to deliver Computer Science across all Key Stages, looking at programming and how to offer a paperless classroom. Suitable for schools who are preparing for remote learning. As part of our development as an organisation, we have defined our vision, values and strategic objectives as a Teaching School Hub, which you can view here. ![]() As part of this process, we have developed a Theory of Change that provides a logic model for what we do and this process has enabled us to distil the key outcomes that we are looking to achieve. It is important for us that our objectives and outcomes ‘do’ something: for us this means we now use the objectives to help decide what we do. We have also used our key outcomes to shape a new approach to how we evaluate our programmes, both as specific events and the cumulative impact. Organisations like TSSW are historically not strong at evaluation and we want to address this with an ambitious new evaluation framework that enables us to accurately judge our impact. We will publish details in the New Year. Supporting us on this journey has been ImpactEd – a national organisation with a mission to address the evaluation-deficit in education. If you as a School or Trust would like to learn more, you can check out ImpactEd's website or contact us to find out more about what we have done. |
