The Coding as a Palette of Virtues metaphor introduces a pedagogical approach for teaching coding and computational thinking that integrates the cultivation of character strengths along with technical knowledge and skills (Bers, 2022). Previous research has used the Palette of Virtues to understand how children explore and develop these virtues, but little is known as to how teachers personally resonate with and model these virtues in the classroom. The present study employed a mixed methods design to measure and understand the extent to which teachers in a preschool for homeless children personally experienced and intentionally promoted these virtues in their practice as they were implementing a robotics curriculum. Results of the study revealed that while all ten virtues were relevant to the entire group of teachers, individualteachers placed higher emphasis on different virtues. Additionally, the results revealed patterns of overlap between and among virtues (e.g., experiencing two or more virtues simultaneously). These findings suggest that specific virtues can be leveraged to encourage the expression of othervirtues in the palette. Furthermore, they offer insight into the extent teachers experience each virtue and provide possible approaches for educators to integrate socioemotional learning into computer science education for young children.
