Programmeren kun je leren – Teacher manual

This manual is part of books 1 to 4 of Programming you can learn.

The manual is intended for teachers (and parents) who guide children in learning to program.

Manual per book, step by step

With this manual you can guide children step by step in learning to program, even if you have no knowledge of programming yourself. The manual follows the layout of books 1 to 4: the relevant pages are always shown in miniature. You can track the progress of the kids. You offer more challenge with the extra assignments. The manual also provides learning objectives for each book and explanations of key programming concepts covered. Tip: ask the children to explain to you what they are doing – they learn a lot from that! And don’t forget to try programming yourself!

Technical descriptions

In the technical descriptions you will find an explanation of the five programming languages used: Logo, Scratch, Python, HTML and JavaScript. With this information you can, for example, solve malfunctions and problems. Next to the description you will find a comparison of the programming languages. At the back of the manual are suggestions for discussing ‘safety on the internet’ with children, and links to websites with teaching materials.
