ASCE UVAWISE

The purpose of this group is to share resources created through the three-year Region VII Computer Science STARS: Supporting Teachers Application, Recognition, and Skills for Computer Science Education grant. This project is designed to build and expand upon regional expertise in Computer Science to aid in the implementation of the Virginia Department of Education’s Computer Science Standards of Learning. The grant will offer multiple opportunities for professional development in Computer Science including several targeted workshops, conferences, and coursework to PK-12 teachers from across Region VII.

Sorting by Attributes

(View Complete Item Description)

After teaching about sorting objects, students will need some independent practice. In the classroom, students are often able to sort objects physically, but when they are learning online, they may need to do it by a computer program for the sake of teacher assessment. This Google slide deck has three attributes (shape, color, and size) for students to sort the pictures. It also contains some questions about sorting for discussion, whether students are in class or at home.
