 We are currently integrating modules on [[comp_think|computational thinking]] into existing education courses. The modules highlight the pervasiveness of computational metaphors in topics like reasoning, knowledge construction,​ and problem solving. We have developed a course on [[ci2010:​start|contemporary issues in computing]] which explores how computing affects everyone and how the Internet has changed and will continue to change societies and individuals. ​ A centerpiece of the CS Endorsement is a [[mt2012f:​start|methods course]] with an associated teaching practicum in computer science. We are currently integrating modules on [[comp_think|computational thinking]] into existing education courses.
