She argued that ‘computational thinking is a way humans solve problems; it is not trying to get humans to think like computers’ (Wing, 2006, p. 35). Computational thinking is essentially the skill of breaking down problems into smaller, more manageable parts, enabling you to solve more complex problems by treating them as bite-size parts.]]> 2023-04-24 09:09:33 UTC https://padlet.com/paugusta86/txnlio3p1lxhjofe/wish/2565412512 Augusta learning how computational thinking works in real situations paugusta86 https://padlet.com/paugusta86/txnlio3p1lxhjofe/wish/2565413963 2023-04-24 09:10:58 UTC https://padlet.com/paugusta86/txnlio3p1lxhjofe/wish/2565413963 paugusta86 https://padlet.com/paugusta86/txnlio3p1lxhjofe/wish/2565430218 2023-04-24 09:25:53 UTC https://padlet.com/paugusta86/txnlio3p1lxhjofe/wish/2565430218 Important words and concepts paugusta86 https://padlet.com/paugusta86/txnlio3p1lxhjofe/wish/2566567094 ‘digital divide’. The gap between those with and without access to reliable internet services and digital devices, as well as the necessary skills to use them, became an urgent social justice issue (Holmes and Burgess, n.d.)

 ‘digital natives’ (Prensky, 2001). This view suggests that children, having grown up with technology, should instinctively understand how to use it. Whilst researchers have been challenging this idea for over a decade (Helsper and Enyon, 2009; Selwyn, 2009).

 Using technology effectively in learning therefore requires a specific knowledge of digital pedagogy, as well as a secure level of digital literacy.]]> 2023-04-25 02:42:30 UTC https://padlet.com/paugusta86/txnlio3p1lxhjofe/wish/2566567094 (UNESCO, 2012): leading all children to be digital inventors and makers through activities such as programming a range of devices, designing websites, controlling robots, and expressing themselves creatively using a variety of digital tools paugusta86 https://padlet.com/paugusta86/txnlio3p1lxhjofe/wish/2566572122
  • digital literacy (basic knowledge, skills and concepts of informatics and computers; computer literacy, working with applications; safety in a digital world)
  • programming or computational thinking
  • problem solving (logical reasoning, justification, argumentation; strategies for problem solving)
  • data handling (organising and analysing data, understanding patterns and structures).
