Tech Helpers
Tech Helpers
Front: A system in which students take on different responsibilities during CS lessons helps build a collaborative classroom and a sense of community while reducing teacher overload and learned helplessness.
Back: Create a student team to assist with devices, materials and helping other students. Provide guidelines and scaffolding to student helpers to prevent them from doing the work for others. Rotate students to allow all students the opportunity to take on a tech helper role. Post the current team of assistants on the board and/or in a handout.
