-<WRAP tip> 
-When given relevant information about computational thinking, education students’ attitudes toward computer science 
-becomes more favorable and they will be more likely to integrate computing principles in their future teaching.

-===== EDPS 235: Learning and Motivation ===== 
- 
-We embedded a one-week **Computational Thinking Module** within the introductory course EDPS 235: Learning and Motivation. This course introduces pre-service K-12 teachers to basic concepts of classroom management, learning, motivation, and assessment. ​ The course builds understanding of concepts and novice-level skills in applying those concepts to teaching and learning situations in K-12 schools.

-===== EDCI 270: Introduction to Educational Technology and Computing ===== 
- 
-We also embedded a one-week online module, centered around the use of a **WebQuest on Computational Thinking**, in EDCI 270: Introduction to Education Technology and Computing. This course is for all teacher education majors. It introduces pre-service teachers to the fundamentals of educational technology, including the integration of instructional design, media, computers and related technologies within the classroom setting.
