Introducing Computer Science into Czech Grammar Schools: First Results

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

In this paper we share the first findings from teaching computer science (CS) on Czech grammar schools (GS). We first describe the basic situation and the goals of our research. Then we describe briefly the goals, content and methods of the developed CScourse. Afterward we proceed to the first results, as we are at the end of the first school year of experimental education. Czech GS (students aged 15-19) aim to provide classical education and general knowledge as a basis for further university studiesof nearly any field. However, CS is not a part of standard grammar school education in the Czech Republic. It is mentioned only briefly in curricular documents, and often completely missing in real classes (unlike information technology related education). We see this as a mistake, considering the role of CS in our lives and its potential to develop higher cognitive skills and key competencies (mostly problem and communication related). The outcomes of the first year of CS teaching serve
