You will need access to the following technology to participate in this online teacher training courses:
- A Computer, Tablet or Smartphone to watch the course video’s on.
- If you wish to try out a few of the coding lessons yourself, you will need a Laptop or Desktop computer to do some of the coding lessons. This course doesn't suit the use of a Tablet, due to the nature of the games being created.
- Headphones are recommended, as this course contains video lessons with audio.
- Internet Connection – you will need an internet connection so you can watch the video lessons and code along in Scratch online.
- In order to code in Scratch and save your work, you will need access to a Teacher Account in Scratch. This may have been created for you by your school administrator, so check with them prior to creating another one. If it wasn't, there is a lesson you can follow to show you how to create your own.
