Webinar Description:

Thousands of programmers teach coding, web design, robotics, and other skills in the workplace or after-school programs and bootcamps, but most have never been taught how to teach well. Just as knowing a few basic facts about germs and nutrition can help you stay healthy, knowing a few things about cognitive science and instructional design can help you design better lessons and deliver them more effectively. This webinar presents a handful of evidence-based practices you can use right now, explains why we believe they are true, and points you at other resources that will help you go further.


Logistics:

Only 1,000 live attendees are allowed in the Webinar on a first come first serve basis. It is typical for many people who register to not attend (which is why registration does not guarantee access.) If for any reason you cannot make the webinar or cannot get in we will provide links to the recording as well as all materials within 48 hours.
