Using Computer Aided/Assisted Design (CAD) in primary schools is often overlooked.
Providing links between SketchUp and Scratch was particularly useful and is something we will look at implementing in school in future. I have experienced using CAD software before but the depth of content offered definitely developed my skills. The ‘SketchUp’ training was very useful for myself, as DT lead. I’m going to be using Sketchup which is a powerful (and free!) tool which can either be downloaded and installed, or used within a browser (note: online use required an email sign up). The ability to follow in real time and the option to ask questions was extremely useful! As a CAD beginner, I now feel I can teach this to my Y6s and help the rest of the school get started with it! Year 6 Teacherĭue to popular demand, I’m delivering further online training for how to use, and get the best out of, 3D design software in Primary Schools. Thank you for this really helpful course. I’ve genuinely enjoyed this session and I am really excited to share this with my children! KS2 teacher A Year 6 design in Sketchup for their Crumble Robot Phil was friendly, informative and open to questions. I felt the session was really accessible. It is our intention, to provide a wealth of inspiration for primary teachers to take back to their own classrooms! With various strands to choose from, including coding, online safety and cross-curricular computing, teachers will be able to choose a pathway of workshops that is best suited to their individual needs and continuing professional development priorities. A one-day, online conference for primary teachers from across the South West.Whether you’re leading computing in your school, or are new to the subject, the conference will cater for those in different positions with their provision of computing, with content for both key stage 1 and 2 teachers.įree to attend, all content will be recorded and available for delegates to access after the event, providing the scope to revisit and focus on key concepts, or catch up on sessions you were unable to join.
On Friday 9th July, the West Country Computing Hub will be launching it’s Festival of Computing. Book on here: Free Primary Computing Festival 9th July
