[CASL-L] FYI

[Barbara Johnson]

We are excited to announce that Code Haven’s annual conference TeachTech
will be held on January 25, 2020 at Yale University! We would love to
invite you all both to attend the conference and let interested teachers
and administrators in your districts know about the event!



TeachTech is a free conference that aims to help middle school teachers
incorporate computer science into their curriculum. Many teachers are
interested in teaching CS in their classes, but lack the CS knowledge or
resources to do so. At TeachTech, we bring together teachers,
administrators, and other educators from New Haven and the surrounding area
and equip them with CS curriculum resources, talks from diverse CS
education leaders, and learnings from our own experiences teaching CS to
middle schoolers.



A bit more about us, Code Haven is a Yale student-run organization that
focuses on increasing access to computer science among middle school
students. We currently teach introductory computer science in seven
classrooms across New Haven. With limited resources, Code Haven is limited
in the number of classrooms we can reach in a given year. TeachTeach is a
way of extending our impact and reaching teachers in schools we don’t have
the capacity to teach at.



TeachTech 2020 is January 25th on Yale’s Campus. The event is 100% free and
also includes complimentary breakfast and lunch.



If you are interested in attending, please fill out our interest form and
we will follow up with more details and tickets as the event approaches:

If you are interested in speaking at the event or know someone who would
be, please reach out to us at codehaveyale at gmail.com.



Please share this information with anyone who may be interested!
