Keywords: Computational Thinking, Computer Science Education, Professional Development, Co-design, Interdisciplinary Learning
Integrated Computational Thinking (iCT) is a National Science Foundation funded project aiming to develop a competency-based professional learning program to support middle school teachers to become capable of designing, facilitating, and iterating computational thinking integrated learning experiences in their pedagogy. The project focuses on under-explored subjects when it comes to integration of computational thinking, specifically language arts, social studies, and arts.
