Educator Resources
From IPRE Wiki
Introduction
This page contains lecture notes, powerpoint slides, and activity suggestions to assist you with teaching CS 1 with Robots. The material is loosely organized following the outline of the IPRE textbook, but you are encouraged to mix and match. Lecture notes are provided for teachers who like to program in front of their class and work examples in python live or on the board. Powerpoint slides can be a useful starting point for your own prepared lectures. In class activities are useful for small classes or lab/recitation sections. If you find problems with or make improvements to any of these materials we would love to incorporate your changes, please email [Jay Summet] with your improvements.
