Become A Computer Science Teacher

  • 0:09 - 0:13
    There's so many computer science jobs out there that are not being filled.
  • 0:13 - 0:16
    So the more computer science teachers we have in our school systems
  • 0:16 - 0:18
    the more students we will be able to reach.
  • 0:18 - 0:22
    And getting past that initial fear of what
    computer sciences is,
  • 0:22 - 0:25
    is what's gonna change the whole field of
    computer science.
  • 0:34 - 0:37
    The curriculum is very accessible to
    first-time teachers.
  • 0:37 - 0:42
    I think it's also accessible to
    experienced teachers.
  • 0:42 - 0:46
    If you didn't have any background knowledge
    of computers, technology, computer science
  • 0:46 - 0:51
    whatever the case may be,
    you can successfully teach this course.
  • 0:51 - 0:52
    So it's great.
  • 0:53 - 0:56
    Having lots of teachers in the classroom
    will give us the ability
  • 0:56 - 1:00
    to adapt to a future that
    frankly none of us can predict.
  • 1:01 - 1:03
    The workplace has changed.
  • 1:03 - 1:05
    Education has to change.
  • 1:05 - 1:09
    And this is all part of helping to prepare
    students
  • 1:09 - 1:12
    for the world that they're going to work in.
  • 1:12 - 1:16
    If you have an interest you need to go for
    it!
  • 1:16 - 1:20
    And you need to do that really not just
    for yourself
  • 1:20 - 1:23
    but certainly to benefit your students.
  • 1:23 - 1:27
    They need stuff that is relevant and this...
  • 1:27 - 1:29
    I think this is it.
  • 1:30 - 1:30
    Yeah.
