Abstract

An Introduction to Computational Thinking provides an introduction to design and creativity through use of a computer to create art and music. It also serves as an introduction to computational thinking – the art of developing a solution in a form that can be implemented by a computer. Many states have established mandates that computer science and computational thinking must be taught in schools. This often includes integration of computational thinking with other subjects. Introduction to Computational Thinking provides examples of ways in which computational thinking might be incorporated into mathematics, language arts, social studies, and science. These examples are designed to stimulate thinking and conversation about ways in which computational thinking might be integrated with subjects taught in schools.
