MITECS and Computer Science Standards Crosswalks
ABOUT THESE RESOURCES
The MITECS and Computer Science Standards Crosswalk resources provide a variety of activities for teachers to easily integrate the MITECS (Michigan Integrated Technology Competencies for Students) and Michigan Computer Science Standards into the K-8 classroom. They were created for all teachers who are interested in exploring ways to make connections between computer science and grade level curriculum content.
Who Is This Designed For?
The user-friendly resources are meant for all teachers, from those who need support getting started with coding and computer science to those with experience with technology integration and are looking for new ideas.
What is included?
There is a separate crosswalk and video for Grades K-2, Grades 3-5 and Grades 6-8.
