Description

Google's free online professional-learning programme helps K–12 teachers learn computational-thinking concepts and classroom applications through course materials and a community of practice for sharing ideas, challenges, solutions, and resources.

Components

  • Google's Computational Thinking for Educators free online course with community of practice: Google provides "a free online course called Computational Thinking for Educators" structured around algorithms and patterns for four groups of teachers: humanities, mathematics, science, and computer science teachers. Beyond online materials, it offers "a community of practice that provides a place for educators to share ideas, challenges, solutions, and resources learned from their classroom practice." The article presents it as an accessible starting point for teachers interested in embedding CT. (Yadav et al. (2016))
