Learn to teach Stanford’s IntroLogic in High Schools
Logic is to Computer Science as Calculus is to Physics. So far, this essential mathematical training is not available to programmers being trained in high schools. Introduction to Logic, IntroLogic, curriculum topics covered include propositional logic, relational logic, deduction, and proofs.
IntroLogic is a free Stanford-developed curriculum that can be taught as a standalone course or embedded in a course. Suitable for grades 9-12. The course addresses the Data and Analysis & Algorithms and Programming concepts in the CSTA Teaching Framework. The course has been approved for “g” credit in California schools.
The course is well-tested as it has been taught at Stanford University for over twenty years, and it is now offered as a MOOC that has attracted over 625,000 enrolled students.
