Teaching Storytelling Alice at Cardinal Forest Elementary Amanda Gilbert Period 3 Computer Systems Lab

Abstract 5 th graders at Cardinal Forest  Scratch background  Storytelling Alice  Writing Applications

Introduction  Teaching aspect  Focus on teaching girls  Success of Storytelling Alice  Writing  Programming  Math

Background  First year doing this at Cardinal Forest  Girls' ability to program  Gaming community male-centered  Storytelling vs. game making  Why do girls NOT choose computer science Social norms Math/science confidence

Background Continued  Syntax/algorithmic thinking/basic concepts  Alice's visual nature

Discussion  3D nature: difficult concept  Younger age: will it help?  SOL writing-based course Effective?

Expected Results: Where do we go from here?  Possible Directions Project Teach mathematical concepts Focus on girls Simple small projects
