MSPnet Academy: Infusing Computational Thinking into Science Education
Description
The Santa Fe Institute has been developing programs and curricula that infuse computational thinking into Science education for the past 12 years. In this webinar we will describe how the study of Complex Adaptive Systems through computer modeling and simulation fits into existing science frameworks and classes, share information about our program and curricula, and describe the professional development needed to prepare Science teachers to address the computational thinking practices presented in the NRC framework and NGSS.
