Boost student engagement through the core concepts of computational thinking: decomposition, pattern recognition, abstraction, and algorithmic thinking.

In this session, you’ll learn how to integrate these skills into your teaching, making complex concepts more accessible and engaging for students. Our presenters will share examples of activities as well as strategies to create your own to encourage students to break down problems, identify patterns, develop algorithms, and think like computer scientists, even without coding.

Take the next step to fostering critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity in your classroom and continue transforming the way your students approach learning. Don’t miss this opportunity to empower your students with the skills they need for the future!
