Part 1: Digital Education Across Educational Institutions
This pilot case study, which outlines an introductory computer programming project, using Python, builds on the international success of the “Literacy from Scratch” teaching model [1–3]. Its aim is to contextualise the teaching of Python through a cross-curricular teaching and learning model, rather than through teaching Python elements separately. It therefore recommends the development of elementary coding skills by pupils, aged from 10 to 14 years, through the creation of very short stories or scripts, using Python strings. Each story chapter of the project further introduces worked examples of additional Python programming elements such as Turtle graphics and times-tables, within the constructionist framework of a creative writing project [4]. The project is supported by a free website for teachers. Our hope is that this creative approach to coding may encourage the enthusiastic adoption of such a cross-curricular method for teaching and learning computer coding with Python in our schools.
