CS4RI has established in all RI public school districts high-quality computer science education at the Elementary level that follows the RI State Computer Science Education Standards by providing CS curriculum that integrates into existing elementary school programs.
The Code4Kids Teacher Training prepares educators to confidently begin teaching computer science using the Code4Kids CS Course.
This one-day professional development workshop introduces educators to computational thinking and computer science concepts through 3D modeling using BlocksCAD
In recent years, smart devices have become truly intelligent through the integration of artificial intelligence directly into microchips. This shift has created the Artificial Intelligence of Things (AIoT).
The Ozobot CS&AI PD Program is a hands-on professional development experience designed to support K–8 educators in integrating Rhode Island’s computer science standards into their classrooms.
This program includes 24 interdisciplinary modules that empower students to adopt a design-thinking mindset through activities, projects, and problems that build upon each other and relate to the world around them.
Students use Scratch a drag and drop programming language to code, create and share interactive stories, animations, games, art, music, and more as they learn problem solving and other fundamental CS concepts.
Students use a drag and drop programming language called Scratch Jr. to code, create, and share interactive stories, animations, games, music, and more as they learning problem solving and other fundamental CS concepts.
Students create computer programs to help them collaborate with others, develop problem-solving skills, and persist through difficult tasks while learning programming concepts, computational thinking, and digital citizenship.
