Teaching Coding Visually
After reading through this module I gained some insight on how to teach Coding with teams of students and create a visual atmosphere. In my next lecture, I will incorporate this by placing students into small groups and have them to code different parts of the assignment and rotate them so that each student has an understanding of when to use each coding rule.

I reach visual students when teaching coding by using PowerPoint and providing a hands on exercise that I work with students. I use a projector to enable students to see my code and help troubleshoot coding errors. Students apply their knowledge after the demo to demonstrate their understanding. I have a student who successfully completed the assignment help a struggling student as I work my way around to each student.
Hi Mia, Thanks for your post to the forum. That approach is also useful for kinesthetic students. Best wishes for continued success in your teaching career.
