Traditional all the way! #caschat

A1. Progress made on independent practice. One students print statement could be the same progress as another's first person shoot'em up game. #CASchat

A2. I do love the PRIMM approach and some teacher questioning of their answers. One short program a few questions/tasks and expert questioning makes for a good lesson. #caschat

A2. Also I think there is a big need to bring some of the GCSE style questions down to KS3 to demystify what the subject is like in written form.#caschat

A3 Marking/Feedback needs to be appropriate to the task. There is no point in me giving written feedback on programming tasks. Needs to be immediate feedback. Whole class marking is better for addressing misconceptions. #CASChat

A4 goes back to Q3. Constantly moving around the room. Helping/advising/feeding back. Would prefer sore feet than a stack of marking! Using LSQ to check for understanding of key concepts #caschat
