This session provides teachers classroom activities to encourage hands-on computational thinking - no technology required. We will define the four main elements of computational thinking - decomposition, pattern matching, abstraction, and algorithms - play a game or two to practice the concepts, and identify areas of your day to incorporate these ideas. By the end of the hour, you will come away with tech-free ideas that promote computational thinking in your classroom.
