| - | ====== Computational Thinking Modules ====== | ||
| - | <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. | ||

| - | ===== Introduction to Computational Thinking for Teachers ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | [[http://www.amanyadav.org | Dr. Aman Yadav]] embedded a **Computational Thinking Module** within the introductory course for preservice teachers (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. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Below are **two presentation** introducing Computational Thinking in the classroom. | ||
| - | |||
| - | * Overview of Computational Thinking {{:what-is-ct_edps235.pdf|}} | ||
| - | * Computational Thinking in K-12 {{:ct-in-k12_edps235.pdf|}} | ||
| - | |||
| - | Some ideas presented in these lectures were based on: | ||
| - | |||
| - | * J.M. Wing, “Computational Thinking,” CACM viewpoint, vol. 49 no. 3, March 2006, pp. 33-35. | ||
| - | * J.M. Wing, “Computational Thinking and Thinking About Computing,” Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society, vol. 366, July 2008, pp. 3717-3725. | ||
| - | * P. Phillips, “Computational Thinking: A Problem-Solving Tool for Every Classroom,” in NECC 2007. | ||
| - | * Ormrod J. (2011). Educational Psychology: Developing Learners (7th Edition). New York, NY: Pearson. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== WebQuest on Computational Thinking ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | 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. | ||
