My Journey so far on my continuing mission to understand learning in computing
![Page 4: Assessing Computing - Junior Computer Sciencecode-it.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/tfc.pdfAssessing Computing By Phil Bagge Computing Inspector/Advisor Hampshire CAS Master Teacher](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042220/5ec6ad4938387536650b820a/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
My "Research" Base
•An Advanced Skills Teacher of ICT since 2007
• Teaching organised Computing Science at six schools since 2011
•Over 1800 hours of Computing Science taught at 6 schools

Discoveries so far
• Primacy of Computational thinking in programming
• Unplugged (never leading to programming) great as introduction to concepts in primary but don't get stuck there
• Balance between instruction and exploration in programming is important
• Computing Science fantastic for promoting resilience
• Don't start with a fully formed assessment system or you set expectations too low

Resilience in Computing spreads to other curriculum areas• Video can be found at
• Ringwood Y5 Video

Computing helps pupils solve problems in other areas of the curriculum
• Ringwood Y4 Video Problem Solving
![Page 8: Assessing Computing - Junior Computer Sciencecode-it.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/tfc.pdfAssessing Computing By Phil Bagge Computing Inspector/Advisor Hampshire CAS Master Teacher](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042220/5ec6ad4938387536650b820a/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Through emphasis on pupils solving problems themselves I have more time in my lessons ….. More time to capture the learning
![Page 9: Assessing Computing - Junior Computer Sciencecode-it.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/tfc.pdfAssessing Computing By Phil Bagge Computing Inspector/Advisor Hampshire CAS Master Teacher](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042220/5ec6ad4938387536650b820a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
What am I attempting to capture and assess?• Computational thinking in action
• Algorithmic thinking & efficiency
• Decomposition
• Generalisation
• Abstraction
• Programming Understanding• Sequence, Repetition, Selection & Variables
• Independent or Supported
• Complex or Simple
• Debugging

Assessing Computing in Lessons
![Page 12: Assessing Computing - Junior Computer Sciencecode-it.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/tfc.pdfAssessing Computing By Phil Bagge Computing Inspector/Advisor Hampshire CAS Master Teacher](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042220/5ec6ad4938387536650b820a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
When training other teachers I have got them to discuss pupils programming projects and use this to record pupil progress
It helps to discuss complexity and independence
![Page 13: Assessing Computing - Junior Computer Sciencecode-it.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/tfc.pdfAssessing Computing By Phil Bagge Computing Inspector/Advisor Hampshire CAS Master Teacher](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042220/5ec6ad4938387536650b820a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Talk for computing allows you to ask pupils if they had help and take this into account when assessing their work
Here a pupil has had considerable support from their neighbour discovered through discussion with teacher

Deciding what is simple and what is complex encourages me to adapt my own progression grid

I discovered more through dialogue with pupils than I did just assessing their work outcome

Good Questions
• Most of time questions need to be directly related to what they are working on
• Framed to draw out computational thinking not always mention it directly (may be different with older pupils)• Unless a word is in general school use is part of the
schools vocabulary not always useful to use it• Can you describe where you have used computational
thinking skill of generalisation in your programming project? OR
• Can you explain where you adapted an idea that you used somewhere else?

Talk for computing logistics
Booth• Green screens great as
background
• One take only especially with older pupils
• Compulsory not an option
In Class• Small stand is important
for sound and hands free
• Some lessons it is about choice and others it is compulsory
Digital Literacy skills are important• Framing face or screen• Knowing where microphone is• Everyday use not 'super special'• Saving videos
![Page 27: Assessing Computing - Junior Computer Sciencecode-it.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/tfc.pdfAssessing Computing By Phil Bagge Computing Inspector/Advisor Hampshire CAS Master Teacher](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042220/5ec6ad4938387536650b820a/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Practicalities Learnt
• Pairs in the booth don’t work unless they have predefined interviewer interviewee roles
• I’m not the best person to carry out the interviews for assessment
• Can’t just rely on volunteers everyone needs to be forced to have a go
• Teach some digital literacy videoing skills first

Where next?
• Talk for maths, literacy, history etc
• The grid in other subjects or topics
• Reflecting on teaching and learning
• Developing a great questions bank
• Summary of response
