Garth,

Unfortunately, there isn't a 'how to teach' tutorial for any of our classes, but districts, the state ACTE IT Division, and/or the state office of education provide PD within the districts or conferences although they don't necessarily prepare teachers how to teach it.

Rather, the state board of education has teacher endorsement requirements in order to teach each of these courses. Obviously, the highest level CS endorsement is needed to teach the Game Development courses, so teachers generally have experience teaching CS before they teach these two courses. Additionally, the state office of education provides Methodology courses for every CTE CS endorsement which does provide insight into how to teach a CS course.

Utah does have a system in place for all CTE programs/clusters/pathways, and I welcome visiting with you further, if interested. I am a District CTE Coordinator and not a Utah State Board of Education employee, but I work well with our state specialist.

we have had teachers from surrounding states (ID, WY) attend our conferences in the past.
