Hosting an elected official at your Hour of Code

Inviting an elected official to your Hour of Code event will show your representative the impact and need for computer science education, and your students will be inspired by a role model in government.

In order to run a successful Hour of Code event while engaging elected officials, complete these tasks prior to the elected official attending your school. The task includes coordination with their point of contact, media invitations, waivers, and planning your agenda.


1

Invite an elected official

Determine the point person for both your event and the elected official.

Pred uro kode

Coordinate both the point person from your event (e.g., school administrator) and for the elected official attending (e.g., staffer or scheduler). Ensure both parties have each other's contact information for the day of the event.

Izberite svoje dejavnosti

Letošnja tema Ura kode je Ustvarjalnost z umetno inteligenco (AI). Ne glede na to, ali gre za kodiranje novih aplikacij in algoritmov, ustvarjanje edinstvene umetnosti ali izdelavo koreografije, s katero bomo plesali, AI odpira nove priložnosti za digitalno izražanje, ki širijo naše razumevanje ustvarjalnosti. Naredite to leto posebno tako, da zaključite dejavnost kodiranja IN spoznajte AI.

Najprej raziščite na stotine dejavnosti kodiranja in izberite eno glede na starost, izkušnje, interese in še več vaše skupine. Te izbrane dejavnosti predstavljajo umetno inteligenco kot ključno temo ali lekcijo.

Nato izvedite vse o AI. Študenti si lahko ogledujejo kratke videoposnetke s strokovnjaki s tega področja, spremljajo pa načrti pouka za razširitev dejavnosti in vodenje nadaljnje razprave. Ali pa ponujamo brezplačno strokovno učenje za vzgojitelje, da odklenemo prihodnost poučevanja z umetno inteligenco in o njem.

Načrtujte svoj dogodek

Create a specific agenda for the day and make sure all parties participating (teachers, students, administrators, elected officials and their staff) are aware of what is happening and when. Things to consider:

  • What is each participant doing during each part of the event?
  • Will the official sit with one student, or rotate between many students during the event? (You may want to coordinate this ahead of time with the official's staffer.)
  • Will the official speak to the students as a group?
  • Plan flexibility into the agenda. What if the official is running late? What if some students finish their activity before others?

Tukaj je vzorec dnevnega reda za začetek:

  • 10:00 - 10:05 am: Open with one of our inspirational videos.
  • 10:05 - 10:15 am: Principal gives an intro overviewing the importance of computer science. Use these stats and infographics.
  • 10:10 - 10:15 am: Elected official to talk about their background and how technology and computer science plays an important role in their everyday life.
  • 10:15 - 10:55 am: Students do their Hour of Code activity. Fun twist: have a group of students teach the principal, politician, or other students!
  • 10:55 - 11:00 am: Teacher/administrator gives closing remarks.

Coordinate with Media

Know who will be responsible for coordinating media invitations. It could be the school, the district, the official's office, or any combination.

Secure media waivers for all students, per your state/district/school policy.

6

Confirm all details

Send the public agenda to the official 72 hours prior to the event. Include event dress code, who will greet them, which classroom or event they will attend with teacher's name, and agenda for the event.

Review the agenda and test all technology the day before and day of the event to ensure the event runs smoothly.

Pridobite kodiranje!

To ensure the elected officials feel welcome and engaged, greet the elected official at the door of the event to show them where to go and answer any questions they may have. It is always great to have a student help greet them!

Dan ure kode

Take pictures during the event to commemorate the visit and to post on your organization's social media networks. (Publicity or privacy policies may apply).

Make sure the agenda is running smoothly and that it remains on track to end on time. The official may have other visits or meetings scheduled following your event.

8

After the event

After a successful Hour of Code event, make sure to:

  • Celebrate! Print certificates of completion and congratulate your students.
  • Thank the official for their time and offer to answer any follow-up questions they may have.
  • Post pictures, videos, or notable quotes from the day on social media with #HourOfCode and @codeorg. (Publicity or privacy policies may apply.)
  • Send the official a follow-up thank you note. It's especially thoughtful to get students to sign!
  • Follow up with the staff point person on each side for feedback on how to make next year’s event even better.

Preko ure kode

Computer science doesn't have to end with the Hour of Code! While 90% of parents want their child to learn computer science, most schools still don't teach it and hundreds of thousands of jobs go unfilled. Learn how to bring computer science to more schools in your area and advocate for computer science to be a graduation requirement.

Kaj je Ura za kodo?

Ura kodiranja se je začela kot enourni uvod v računalništvo, zasnovan tako, da demistificira »kodo«, da pokaže, da se lahko vsakdo nauči osnov in razširi sodelovanje na področju računalništva. Od takrat je postalo svetovno prizadevanje za praznovanje računalništva, začenši z enournimi dejavnostmi kodiranja, vendar se širi na vse vrste prizadevanj skupnosti. Oglejte si vaje in dejavnosti. To množično kampanjo podpira več 400 partnerjev in izobraževalcev 200,000 po vsem svetu.

Zakaj računalništvo?

Every študent bi moral imeti priložnost, da se naučijo računalništva. Pomaga pri negovanju veščin reševanja problemov, logike in ustvarjalnosti. Z začetkom zgodaj bodo študenti imeli temelje za uspeh na kateri koli karierni poti 21. stoletja. Oglejte si več statistik here.
