Other Resources
Of course, there’s more to a curriculum than software and lesson plans! We also provide a number of resources to educators, including standards alignment, a complete student workbook, an answer key for the programming exercises and a forum where they can ask questions and share ideas.
-
Glossary — A list of vocabulary words used in this pathway.
-
Standards Alignment — Find out how our materials align with Common Core Content and Practice Standards, as well as the TEK and CSTA Standards.
-
Student Workbook — Sometimes, the best way for students to get real thinking done is to step away from the keyboard! Our lesson plans are tightly integrated with the Student Workbook, allowing for paper-and-pencil practice and activities that don’t require a computer.
-
Teacher-Only Resources — We also offer several teachers-only materials, including an answer key to the student workbook, a quick-start guide to making the final project, and pre- and post-tests for teachers who are participating in our research study. For access to these materials, please fill out the password request form. We’ll get back to you soon with the necessary login information.
-
Bootstrap Discussion Forum — Want to be kept up-to-date about Bootstrap events, workshops, and curricular changes? Want to ask a question or pose a lesson idea for other Bootstrap teachers? These forums are the place to do it.
