This is a blended (hybrid) course that focuses on Digital Citizenship and Cloud Computing. Students become familiar with Moodle (an online learning management tool). This course emphasizes self-directed learning and prepares them for future distance learning opportunities. Students continue practicing keyboard skills. Students will engage in library and information gathering activities. Code.org is used to further programming and logic skills. Student growth is measured by a combination of Moodle progress, Keyboarding progress and Coding progress. Most of the resources and assignments are available on the Internet in case a student is absent.
