Integrating Computational Thinking into Teacher Education through an Unplugged Robot Design Lesson
Live / Synchronous
ID: 56078
Abstract: This paper presents an introductory computational thinking (CT) lesson that can be implemented into teacher education curricula. The lesson is the result of a collaboration between computer science and education faculty from two universities. The CT lesson is a robot design activity that can easily be implemented for learners with no prior background in CT using only paper and pencil materials. An example of a robot design that was created in an undergraduate teacher education class is shared, and directions for future research involving this activity are discussed.
