Teacher Voices: A Gallery of Computational Thinking Lesson Plans by Math Educators

Poster Session Flow (90 Minutes) The session begins with the Visual Poster: An infographic displaying data from the dissertation (including the growth of self-efficacy and types of activities created). The Poster should be visually impactful, featuring short texts and large charts, serving as the main starting point for conversation. Next is the Collection Demonstration (Laptop): An interactive navigation of the Padlet showcasing the actual teacher-created lesson plans and colleague comments. The presenter will use the 24-inch monitor to display the Padlet and the graphs on the laptop, inviting groups of 3-5 people to gather and interact at the station. The main segment is Discussion (Individual/Small Group): The presenter will use guided questions focusing on the effectiveness of the community of practice and the specific activities. The presenter engages in in-depth, personalized conversations, using the comments and 'likes' on the Padlet as social proof and evidence of peer engagement. The session concludes with Takeaway Materials: Participants will receive a QR Code for the Padlet and another for the Summary of Results. This involves the distribution of business cards and QR Codes, actively encouraging networking and continuous access to the resources.
