Abstract

In this paper we present a course design for future CS teachers with special attention to the principles of experiential learning and reflective practice. The course aims at enabling the students to explore and evaluate computing systems for their usage in learning scenarios by a hands-on approach. The students are asked to document reflections and their own creative work in an e-portfolio.
