DESCRIPTION
In the new world we live in, coding is a universally valuable skill, whether you’re a scientist, artist, or a humanist. Algorithms are everywhere, and we all have to understand how they work.
The C language is particularly well suited as an introduction to coding: It’s a tried-and-true language, and it allows you to understand computing processes at a deep level.
COMPETENCES
Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:
- Know the principles of computational logic.
- Obtain the necessary knowledge to, as a teacher, help in the development of students’ programming skills.
- Know how to use a variety of digital resources to make activities more interesting for students.
- Increase student engagement and motivation.
- Use of student devices inside and outside the classroom.
- Development of collaborative activities.
- Increase performance and effectiveness in lesson preparation.
- Take advantage of the resources available for the classroom, free and easy to use.
- Be more effective teachers, knowing how to solve computational logic problems that students pose.

METHODOLOGY
The methodology used in the course is ‘learning by doing’ in the form of a guided tutorial.
The teacher, after briefly explaining some concepts and approaching the necessary tools, proposes a project in which participants will have to create educational resources for the class.
The teacher then becomes a support, helping the participants in their learning experience, at the end of the course there will be a test to assess the learning outcomes and the knowledge gained.
RESULTS
- The participant becomes familiar with the programming language.
- The participant increases their computational logic skills.
- The participant knows the basic structure and elements of an algorithm.
- The participant know C++ language.
- The participant knows how to create different programs with C++.
