Introduction to Computational Thinking
Welcome to this course - Introduction to Computational Thinking!
By taking part and completing this course, you will explore the basics of Computational Thinking including the vocabulary and myths associated with the term.
Computational Thinking is a set of problem-solving methods that involve expressing problems and their solutions. We will explore what you already do in school to support and develop Computational Thinking skills, introduce you to unplugged activities, which require no technology at all, and help you to develop a whole school strategy to implement Computational Thinking concepts across the curriculum, and school.
If you have any questions as you work through the course then please do get in touch - we are here to support you on your journey!

This gives a good general overview of what computational thinking is. I would like to see more examples of ways these could be carried out in the classroom. The sound quality of this video isn't great compared to the other courses offered by Aspire.
